memorial

the benches here are paid for by people who can affix a small metal plate with the name of a deceased loved one as a kind of memorial...this one seems to get extra attention each winter...the view is of the pond, currently frozen, in Jericho Beach Park

Such a tranquil scene and unusual sight, a beautifully decorated tree by the memorial bench. Well composed and captured, David. I too would like to know who decorates the tree. V.

How interesting. It seems then, that the tree is decorated by whomever dedicated the bench? It makes a very attractive image, the blue blending in well with the other subdued colours. Very nice! V
