Swingers Wanted!
This rope swing will wait patiently until next summer.
I used a 500mm lens to pull the lakeshore in closer to the swing.

Forget all the funny words or comments that I can make, it would take away from what a great image you have taken. Dennis this image is the most creative photograph I have seen you post. No thoughts or analysis this is just awesome, Winner!! Now I must go see the Zulu Tribe. Smiles #537590Ken Smith October 11, 2006

Dennis what a pleasant reminder this image was for me, in my youth, we use to have one of these roads, except at the bottom we tied a branch so you could sit on it, then swing back in and the next person sat on your lap, well we had a total of 4 people, I was sitting on the branch, the rope broke, splash what fun #3435413Ronald F.
