I've realized it's time for me to slow down & maybe smell a rose or two. There are many reasons to come to a screeching halt in one's life. For me, it's to do something I've missed; like this. And like photography and sketching. I can't even recall the last time I picked up a pencil to draw something! (I will admit I do draw something on that addictive app!)
I was out yesterday (before golf) to finally head (no pun intended) to the BOW downtown Calgary to take some shots of the sculpture in front of the building. I was walking around it, contemplating different ways to capture said head. I'm sure they've all be done before and that's great. It was still fun.
This was taken by lying on the ground. Try not to look up the nose.
I like the one below since it looks as though the head is napping.
I've heard different comments on this sculpture. Some like it & some people just don't. Why not? What's not to like? I think it's interesting & I like the placement. The white of the head really speaks to the lines in the building mostly due to the building being so rigid (yet curved). In any case, it was a quick photo shoot before a lovely golf game. Totally worth the trip downtown.
