Bench series #40

For the month of October I’m looking for a bench with someone or something sitting on it

(any kind of bench will do, but there must be at least one person, animal or object on the bench)

the 'Diana' bench — The “Diana” Bench at the Taj Mahal in India – yes there really is a bench under these ladies!

If you would like to join in with the Bench photo challenge then please take a look at my Bench Series page. No complicated rules, just a bench and a camera required 🙂

Create your own post and title it Bench Series: October
Include a link to this page in your post so others can find it too
Add the tag ‘bench series’ so everyone can find the benches easily in the WP Reader
Get your post in by the end of the month, as the new bench theme comes out on the first Sunday in November.

My Picks of the Week:

Isobel has some lovely benches from Camden’s Stable market and Lisa has benches with a view. Debbie is back in London and there are more curves from Ruth in Hobart. Meanwhile Elaine has some controversial ‘benches’ – what’s your opinion? And my last pick from the metal series is a sweet bench from Dawn with unusual basket-weave.

As always there are so many delightful benches to view, I hope you will check out the other links within the comment section.

I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling. View all posts by Heyjude

Jude that is fantastic! Such colours and I love the sense of fun in the missing bench.

  I was waiting for the bench (or any bench – I don’t think this is THE Diana bench) to be empty, but that was never going to happen. When all these ladies piled on for a photo I figured, why not?

What a great shot! It’s like a conjuring trick. I half-expect a magician to come round with a hoop to prove that everybody is levitating.

  Well I have seen levitation in India too, but in this case there really IS a bench 🙂

It’s been quite awhile. I didn’t seem to be able to find the benches that could go with the challenge. I remembered I had this one. Enjoy ..
