'By the rivers of Babylon...'

No not Babylon :)
But Cambridge surely.My house is in a place where the Charles river literally runs through the backyard. And whenever I feel blue, anxious, content or simply like to be with myself..I go over to a bench (not seen in this picture) and simply sit and look at the children playing, the old man walking and lovers loving..and somehow I can see myself through a distant pair of eyes...
On this particular day (last summer), when I was testing out this camera in the neighbour hood,I found this girl sitting on that very bench, reading and her bike was parked beside the bench.
