Schools out.....

....forever.

I found this desk deposited in the woods today. Not sure if it was a disgruntled student or not.
I was out with my hiking buddy(my dog) today along this dirt road that is used by the railway maitanance guys. If they forget to put the chain at the end of the road up...people tend to dump a lot of junk there. Seems like they forgot....again. :grumpy:

This must have been dragged into the woods, along with a bunch of old catalogues, but I was lucky to find it today.

Just for fun..I put on a filter for this one. It was not until I got home I realized I used the wrong filter.

maybe the student was too chatty in class so they moved his desk to where he'd have fewer oppurtunities to be disruptive...

Good find! Awesome photo!

Cool shots. The first is excellent and I really like the effect on the second shot.

#1 for me too. :thumbup:
Just wish it was sharp, corner to corner (large dof).

Well, I like it that the bundle of catalogues in the foreground is a bit out of focus though desk and chair and background are pinsharp.
What a find!
Well seen

(can hardly be overlooked, actually, right?).

Nice ones Chilley...Isn't it great when happy accidents happen as in your case with the wrong filter?

Becky · Jan 23, 2006

Is the 2nd with the lensbaby? It rocks! And the more authentic first is awesome too!

These are great! :thumbup: I like that discarded catalog in the first one; looks like an abandoned textbook thrown away by the student who abandoned the desk. It fits the image beautifully.

And I just knew, when I saw that title, that there was a Coop reference within. :mrgreen: Perfect!

(and now I'll be humming that song all day!) :lol:
