Description

I was taking a drive one day, like I do often, shooting whatever catches my eye. This plain old tire swing reminded me of being young again...I shot it from my car using nothing fancy and it is one of my favorite shots.

It does recall carefree days....when you didn't need a computer or the internet to have fun! Fantastic shot!!!

Just an old tire, a chain and a tree limb...no tech fun. Shots like this make the viewer nostalgic and do evoke memories...the things art should do. Nicely seen and presented.

Oh yeah ... I have the same memory! My grandfather had three swings hanging from the branches of an old plum tree, and except for the time of the year when the plums were ripe, us kids would run out there and swing and just have the best time. Excellent image!

This image could call up many thoughts. Children grown up and gone away, sad memories of a missing child, or just a swing waiting for a friend. Wonderful.

Makes me think of playing on a tire swing as a kid as well. Congrats on LWitG recognition.
