It would look inaccessable but for the foreground (so unabashedly centered), which says it’s okay, come on ahead, something fascinating in store, come on, one more step, come on….. Wonderful photograph for many reasons.
Bold use of selective focus – breaks the rules but makes a moody, evocative shot. My family used to go for picnics here back when I was a boy. Brings back great memories. thank you, Alistair.
