A nice looking shot Henryk. Great composition and perfect placement of the bench and barn in the photo. I like the cloud covered sky, reflection of the barn and the lines of the pond and road going through the photo. Good color also. Nice greens and good contrast between the red of the barn and dark sky.

Nice work.

Hello Henryk! I have a soft spot in my heart for these "lonely" bench shots. This is a very idyllic scene, the capture of the ducks adds a little life to the scene. All and all, a well composed scene.

Hello, Henryk,
Interesting note, and very inviting bench to sit on. I like the contrasting colours as well and their passage from bright to pale hues.
And the reflection on the water surface is also likable.
