Florence’s statue of

Perseus holding the Head of Medusa

aMay not be a classical Greek statue depicting…iconic.

 

However, when you find the head of the victim

one can certainly say there is a victor….and

an athlete of sorts!

With my farming wool classing background

propagation just had to be a photo of sheep 🙂

One way to cleave a cake…

and of course another way…

which only an eighteen year old would think of.

zoomorphic

The eagle…the ancient Roman symbol of gods of the sky.

Marginal

I am using a noun meaning of marginal this week:

a plant that grows in water close to the edge of land.

Week 5

Look Up

Looking Up in Florence.We had both read I, Mona Lisa, just prior to leaving on our European adventure.   

Set in Florence and mentioning visiting

the Duomo and the Bell Tower frequently

we were both happy to this site come to life.

I think this depicts a trade.

 

Whatever it is, it was

another look up moment.

 Again I was looking up and saw

a warrior (?) standing over a victim. 

I thought the victim had a lot of hair on its head..

and if I noticed the victim was a woman,

I cannot recall…but I certainly noticed today. 

I was again looking up, but…

not quite far enough!

Random Os from

Florence, Beaune, Geelong and Sydney

First up is…

the Bell Tower of Florence.

Does Florence count? 🙂

 

A band rotunda in Beaune, France.

A New Holland Honey Eater courtesy of our back yard.

The Coca-Cola sign in Kings Cross, Sydney.

Of course, photos of Sydney would not

be complete without one of the

Harbour Bridge.

Cee’s

Black and White Challenge:

Backs

~~~~~

Backs from Europe this week…

 and we saw many backs walking away

from us while touring.

I guess we made the backs

for other photographers.

And while in Florence we saw this

imitation of David…but still a back.

Entering Nice one of the first things we saw

was a tarmac full of private jets.

There were times a chair would have

been quite welcome.

I even thought cycling was better than walking.

And I guess a visit to Nice would not be complete

without a tourist shot or two of sunbathers’ backs.
