Lost in Translation

UNBROKEN

Sometimes my walks make me discover the oddest things. I was surprised to find this quirky planting pot at some 1,883 m altitude in the Italian Alps.

    Very quirky reuse of an old car. 🙂 It looks like there are plants in the back seat, too. Nice find, Paula.

      Cheers, Draco 🙂 It turned to be a complete art project with a strawman, suitcases and a pair of skis, but I liked it better when there was just this pot.

                Got it …

                So a Black and White video of Led Zeppelin’s Stairway to Heaven would probably be the most appropriate thing to post … under the circumstances, yes?

    Broken and unbroken in one beautiful photo with a great limited palette. It must’ve been startling to stumble across this – sinister almost. One could construct a whole memento mori symbolism from it, if one was so inclined.

    Very unsettling, especially with the plants being as beyond help as the car!
