Lost in Translation

Black and White Sunday: Sculpture

Break it down in the world of secrets

My example for today’s sculpture theme is an alchemist sitting at the doorstep of a cafe in Bratislava. He was at the point of explaining one of his theories while I was passing by. Follow my lead, if you will, and post a photo(s) of a sculpture in black and white. Do it today or over the next six days. Happy Sunday!

The minute I saw him, I thought it had to be Bratislava. I didn’t spot him when I was there, mind you.
Mine will be up soon.
Happy Sunday to you too

Didn’t you stop to hear what he had to say??? It might’ve made you rich. A beautifully composed photo, and exquisite b&w .

Full of mysteriousness this time, Paula – I am motivated to try one of his “experimental brewings”! Interesting character that most definitely draws attention – I hope the cafe was as well. 🙂 Beautiful!

hmm, is he sitting on the threshold? at the end of the day, he’ll just get up and leave for them to close the door? 😉 I like the edit.

Alchemist, must be an interesting job. Great photo Paula. I definitely have some photos that can fit your theme, but it’s been a hectic weekend and the week looks like it’s going to be hectic as well! I’ll probably post something anyway though, because it’s always fun to join your challenges.
Enjoy your week Paula!

Here’s my sculpture, Paula. Please excuse my turning this post into a bit of quiz, which may indeed lead to another sculpture in another post. Happy Tuesday, although that is a deeply serious question you are asking us this morning, a modus operandi that politicians and corporations rely upon: http://tishfarrell.com/2015/08/17/so-whats-this-all-about/
