Colors and light are perfect here, Don...I like the gentleman on the bench in the foreground seemingly watching the strolling, he really adds to the image:)

Laurie from Prescott, United States

Wonderful capture of the mood of these strollers, Don. I love the lighting and contrast here and I agree with Jenn that the gentleman on the bench adds an observer's point of view to this shot.
Don - I hate to admit my ignorance, but what is "cross-processing"?

@Laurie: Thanks Laurie! Cross-processing originally comes from film developing, it's the procedure of deliberately processing one type of film in a chemical solution intended for another type of film. Example would be developing film with slide developing chemicals or slide in film developing chemical. It changes the tones, hue and saturation of the photo. The same processing can be done with digital photos using software like Photoshop and adjusting the tones, hue and saturation. You can do cross-processing with almost all photo editing software. Here's a gallery of cross-processing images [LINK]
