Also a painting on a large concrete block, found at the Honigcomplex in my hometown Nijmegen.
For some reason there is in hole in these blocks, perhaps an easier way to transport them? But anyway, this artist (Dragon?) used it to create a third eye.
Happy Wall Wednesday ;-))
I took this shot circa 1974 with the Pentax K1000 film camera. This photo was scanned from a print. These third graders are hard at work creating three dimensional clay maps of continents and ocean floors as part of a curriculum I helped create and develop.
If a UFO takes you off planet earth in 2021, is it kidnapping or ransom?

Earlier I posted shots of attempts to reach the top of Barden in Senja. The first attempt failed when rain and hail, and bad visibility forced me to go back (www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/54821190337/in/datepo...), and the second attempt stranded because clouds were packing and the sun was obscured, with the end results probably showing not the pictures that I wanted to have (www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/54885638309/in/datepo...).
4 days later they predicted good weather! In the early morning there would be clouds and mist, but from ca. 11.30 the sky would open up, and around 1300 it would completely open up!
So up I went again over that slippery and very muddy path, now being accustomed to the idea of getting wet shoes, socks and feet.
Alas! Although from this point I still climbed some 100 meters (and got again a little bit further up the Barden track), I ended up in the mist, and no panorama vista to be seen. But I was still optimistic and sat down, waiting for the glorious moment of the first stretch of blue sky appearing.
1,5 hours later it didn't happen, and there were no signs of it to happen, so there I went again, down that muddy and slippery path. And yes, my feet were still very wet. And long after I was down (around 1830), the miracle finally happened, the sky opening up.
Despite the somewhat disappointing result, I made some nice shots, this is one of them.

This is Skaga stave church. It is the third stave church at this place - and it dates to 2001.
The original, dated to the 12th century, was built close to an old sacred well from (possibly) pagan times. There are a lot of legends surrounding this little church, more than perhaps trustworthy history, including how the founder of the church (a woman named Skaga) was saved as an infant by a dog when her father wanted her dead and placed her in the woods, and that the church fell out of use after the Black Death and the area was abandoned - that is quite possible, but the legend continues that the church was re-discovered 'several hundred years later'. I wonder how much you would find of a abandoned wooden building several centuries later... Be that as it may, the church stood there until 1826 when it was pulled down. A copy of the medieval church was built in 1957–58 and inaugurated in 1960. But the church burnt down in 2000. Just a year later a third incarnation of the church, the one still present, was opened to the public. (Well, it is open if you come at the right time - when we passed by the place was closed.)
This bus has been retired twice. It used to belong to a school district and later was purchased by a church in Ohio. It now sits on a farm in Indiana awaiting its third adventure. It looks as if most of the seats have been removed, so I'm guessing it will either be used for hauling farm products or awaiting conversion into a "skoolie" (aka school bus motorhome).

This picture brings back memories but not of a good type. Back in the seventies through the eighties before I could afford a car I use to work in some bad parts of the city and often going home at late hours sometime waiting for a late night train that comes only once a hour in deserted quite stations like this being on a constant guard for, rowdy drunks gang bangers and crazies back when there were no electronic signs to tell you when the next train was coming and then you would the hear the raucous screams of a group belligerent trouble makers entering the station and having to decide what to do next. Not fun times.

It's Casio time again :) This is the third time I've photographed this particular watch from Casio's Vintage line for an MM theme. I couldn't shoot the bracelet this time because I'd already done so before, but I always wanted to get extra close to the shiny logo on the watch's face, and now, with the Laowa lens, this was easier (well, sort of) than ever before. The final image is a single shot processed in DXO PL6, Color Efex, and Luminar Neo.
The lettering (0,65 cm / 0,25 inches wide) was printed, or rather embossed, with a silvery, super shiny "ink" so it almost looks like liquid metal (mercury comes to mind). I've always been fascinated by what happens to lettering when photographed with a very shallow depth of field, so this lent itself as one possible choice for our "Bokeh" theme. I also photographed the "Knot of Fate" pendant and necklace/chain (the bokeh classic) which also was part of last week's theme, and an "S-Biner" carabiner hook that had fallen out of my camera's accessory pouch when I changed my cam's battery (speaking about photographing random things for a theme), so, in the end, it was a little difficult to choose – which is why I simply delegated the choice ;)
HMM, Everyone!
