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)

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.
Well it is the last week for your occupied benches, as we start something new next Sunday. I have been inundated with benches this week, many more with sculptures and even stranger objects! And I am loving the ones set up especially for the challenge 🙂
My Picks of the Week:
My first pick has to be this beautiful bench in Melbourne that would have fitted nicely into the unusual category, but luckily has a lovely young man perched on it;
Lisa (Daily Musings) makes me laugh with her take on a bench with a sculpture from the prolific Seward Johnson. Take a look at her last week’s bench too, sure to make you smile. And more from America from Dawn(1) who captures a well-located bench(2) that many cyclists are deeply grateful for.
Meanwhile in England Sue’s couple are simply admiring the view. Gilly on the other hand has set a challenge. Anyone know where this is? And the restless one gives us a Smörgåsbord of benches. Grumpily 😀
More from the folk who live upside down: DJ finds a lazy bench for lazing on and Ruth has been scouring the streets in Tassie. Whilst Kaz has a view to die for if you are waiting for the ferry.
Thank you everyone, new and old for all for the delightful benches sent my way, and a small mention to all those noisy ones that shout out my name as you go past! Sorry about that 😉
He fits well into his surroundings, obviously born to the good life!
They are such regal birds aren’t they?
here is my other bench post, with some noisy occupants.

Love the different take on benches – what a fab idea having street pianos 🙂
My pingback doesn’t seem to have pinged (pung? pang?), so here’s my offering: http://suejudd.com/2015/10/27/bench-series-great-place-to-sit-on-a-bench/
Pingbacks appear to need me to approve them, I will find it lurking somewhere 🙂
Oh, yes, of course they do!
So here’s another bench, Jude. I’m afraid the ‘something sitting on it’ doesn’t quite compare to your peacock. 😀 https://anotherday2paradise.wordpress.com/2015/10/27/bench-series-43-when-is-a-bath-not-a-bath/
Hi Jude, I just found out your nice challenge end here is my entry:

hopefully I can join the last two months and maybe some next challenge if you are planning any for us 🙂
Thanks for joining in Majka – I see your bench fits into this month and next!
thanks Jude, yes it maybe crosses the prompts and months but I will make sure to post another one for November as well 🙂
Oh good!
Good capture Jude! Yikes…time is running out, I’ll try to do something…
