Finding the beauty in an everyday object

On the TV the other night was a rather interesting report on the BBC's the 'One Show' 

It was reporting on all the benches that had been erected in memory of loved ones in a public park. 

This man who often walked through the park with his dog had taken to photographically documenting all the benches. It was rather touching seeing them complied all together; some were very sincere while others focused on the humourous side of a departed loved one.

This park however, has so many memory benches erected they have had to curb the introduction of any new ones. 

A bench is a very ordinary object really but the context in which it's placed does reveal a story, an insight into other peoples lives and how one place can become so significant to a person.
