Two Times Two

what a coontrast!I'l take the upper one anytime!!:)

I like more the R bench - great diptych again

New World Old World? New Money Old Money --or no money?

This is what I call "bench" marking ! :-)

Watching the deafening trains go by.

I don't know why but imagine the railroad in the middle, your benches at the right and lilly's at the left , back to back , with a pale boundry between the two . I've got used to see this one !

Excellent! I like this one :)

Fantastic

quirky and cute... nice job

Don't lean back, you might end up flat on your tosh. Another good one.

L's benches are for trainspotting. But why two in different sizes?

Caused a good deal of musing on my part... I think that's the point isn't it?

So nice! and nicely done!

A fun image and I got a laugh out of your dialoque.

So similar -- and yet different. A great image from your "parallel universes". What I'm curious about, though, is what the view would be like from each of these locations. Is there anything to be made out of that for us to see?

cool shots. i think i actually like the benches in R's shot better, they have some character, not so much like those new generic looking ones they're using everywhere now.

Fantastisch! Tolle Arbeit!

you always have such phenomenal balance.

Great parallelism! :)

Great diptych!

The chance of catching the 12.15 to York.... It was probably cancelled due to leaves on the line, so that bench is perfectly 'safe'.

Great idea and wonderful shot once again.

Ha - 2 is better than one is this case *especially the leaning back bit you speak of*

Nice!

great pairing

I like the old vs. new aspect of this pairing. Does it mean anything that the new benches have turned their backs on that great 19th century mode of transportation, the train?
