Picnic Grounds

Duffys Forest, New South Wales, Australia · Photographed in Duffys Forest, 2017

Sunlight pierces through the canopy, illuminating abandoned picnic tables and benches in Waratah Park. Overgrown vegetation slowly reclaims the area. This once-vibrant gathering place now stands silent and forgotten.

From the field notes

Concrete slabs sit in rough grass where picnic tables once stood bolted down. Three steel-frame benches remain, their surfaces darkened with grime. A timber shelter and a small brick amenities block stand further back among tall eucalypts. Bark litter covers every surface. The light is flat and overcast, draining colour from the canopy. No people. No sound of cars.

— Brett Patman
