An empty promenade
Everybody's gone home for the Winter

Lost Valley View from Kamloops, Canada
This is a good image! I like how the walkway makes the eyes of the viewer travel down farther to see if there any people down there....nope :-(

Anne from White Rock, Canada
Great Picture Billy! Never seen a prom so empty! What a change though - this photo has escaped the manipulation, strangulation, paint, being split into layers, and, mercifully has generally managed to keep out of Billy's clutches!! What happened! Didn't you feel well?? ;-D

@Anne: aaaah-Anne--how this one escaped my fast fingers I don't really know--I must have been half asleep when I posted it.However normal service will be resumed as soon as possible*-))
cheers--billy
Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom
Wow! I must say I love this one too, dear billy-with-the-refreshing-perspective!! Fantastic sense of space and miles to walk here....even if everyone's gone off now, I'd be pretty happy to walk on here :)
And thanks so much for your lovely thoughts on my site today, dear sir! Yes, turning up the volume on this fav. song is definitely lifting my spirits now! Thank you again :)

@Rebecca: Hey Rebecca--your right pal--it's probably a much nicer place when the Summer crowds have gone--It's funny as well--the locals(that's me)don't visit much in the Summer--it's more for daytrippers and suchlike
I do appreciate your encouraging visits--cheers, billy
Jen from Alpharetta, United States

Nicely done billyboy... you got a total melancholy feel to this one. I can still hear the kids screaming and laughing and all the chaos that is summer. Too bad you didn't get much of summer over there... sucks...
