Downtown Cary Park
This is the brand new (it's been in the works for 20 years) downtown park in Cary North Carolina.
I recently had someone reach out to me, who saw my work online, and wanted me to photograph this park for him to hang in his house. I gave him the choice of several different compositions and this is the one he chose. I then did one of my time blends on it. I really wish those trees were not blocking the amphitheater but there's not much I can really do about that. I made the choice to leave the penguins in the photo. I may end up taking them out in the end.
Anyways, my client was very satisfied with it. And I'd say overall I'm pretty satisfied with it as well.

Congrats on the client Kyle, hopefully they have this hanging with pride.
Oddly enough, I can't decide whether the penguins are a distraction in the image (taking away from that tranquil evening vibe), or add something in the way of balance and a fun diversion.
It looks like your client may not have minded.....
Thanks Alan. I know, I couldn't decide either so I just left it up to my client. Who, so far, has chosen to leave them in.
I think this would actually be a fun composition to have through out the different seasons. Right now it's all decorated for Christmas obviously, but having 4 distinctly different photos of the same place I think would be cool. There's also supposed to be a new art work structure where the penguins are next year. I just wish a designer or architect or someone would have said to somebody that those trees are in the way!
