4/17/2002: River swing

Undertoad · 04-17-2002, 03:30 PM

It's hot out there... hot and disgusting. It's 95 today, was 92 yesterday. I don't want to go out there. It's April dammit. It's less than a month out of winter.

So this image wouldn't have made it in the summer, but it made it today. I like the composition, with the hills in the background. I like how the guy's legs are flailing out and his reflection is in the water. I like how long the rope is. Most of all, I like how much fun this must be.

In my day, we would go swim in the creek which ran next to my neighborhood, and there were swings LIKE this, but none so long. What did y'all have?
