Saw this seen looking over my dad's fence into his neighbor's yard. It seemed such a classic summer image.... Late afternoon, shutter probably 1/60, exposure compensation -0.3, applied unsharp mask filter and a tiny bit of color saturation in Photoshop.

Good shot, Mary-Ella. I'd like to be sitting in that chair right about now!!! #45372Charlene Bayerle July 11, 2003

Thanks for your comments Leanne, Charlene and Colette - much appreciated, and I'm pleased you like the pic! The day I took the series of shots from which this one came was brutally hot, and I was wishing I could be sittin' on that chair too - thankfully the weather here in NH is much cooler now. #140103Patricia Marroquin July 11, 2003
