Yes these are just normal benches to everyone else. But to me they seem to give off this strange vibe. Many people have sat on these benches to mourn the loss of a loved one. Unlike a regular grave where most people come to one individually. Many different people have sat here crying, reminiscing, etc. I don't know if it's just something in the back of my mind as I'm taking pictures but I'm always half expecting that I'll get home and see the picture I thought was an empty bench with someone sitting there. Ghosts to me are much like bugs. If I don't see them they probably won't bother me. Aside from that, I'd just like to say that I love this picture....
Like walls I think these benches have absorbed a lot of energy over the years. I know exactly what you mean about the ‘vibe’. I like this photo though.
ReplyDeleteThose benches remind me of the chairs in Pennhurst State School and Hospital. They both have seen a lot of sadness and tears.
