So this is another view of our favorite party animals, standing in all their gothic splendor in front of the Key West Custom House Museum.
To jog some memories, view their first appearance here.
**And Chris, I deliberately chose this angle, so please refrain from suggesting I straighten the photo. Ha-ha!
Please pray for Bella.
Bella Update: 07/26/08. Saturday. Bella's good this morning; walk was fun/no squirrels, but we did a different block than usual. She likes variety. Breakfast -- meds soon, the post-walk routine. She slept better last night than the one before. Panting still, but it's hot. So, thank you God for another morning blessing today.
Bella and I are grateful for each of you, for caring and singing (love is all around...), and especially for praying. Please understand this miracle being prayed for, because although it is day by day, it also may take a bit of time for completion: Bella's battle for life, wellness, and a healed heart isn't a sprint but a long-distance run.
What we have right now are day by day blessings: I am prayerfully thankful that her good days may be God's bit by bit miracle, slowly unfolding.

I like the angle and the b&w choice. Must agree with e. they are a bit weird or maybe I saw too many Stephen King's movies :)

Surreal type of image, I'm expecting them to move, very very good.

I agree with e, they are a creepy couple! I sure wouldn't want to bump into those two at night,!! A great angle and b&w VF.

A 30 foot man with a pitchfork is just a little scary... :-) Wonderful angle, excellent shot!

A great angle, makes this lovely couple look very imposing. They are pretty famous though ...;D

For some reason this shot reminds me of the opening scene in the "Rocky horror picture show" film.(The wedding).

Well if you straightened the horizon, they would look tipsy, as if we don't already know what party animals they really are...LOL love the photo Vf :)

They do look quite forboding!! Nice angle VF, I like the way it makes them look even larger than life!
7 May 2008 11:16am
@Mandy: <laughing> Well, they are larger than life -- these sculptures are 25-30 feet tall. Check out my previous post on them (May 1 I think)...
Fun shot and comment...

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Thanks Wolfgang.
I love this shot (tilt and all)! I am honored (?) that you called me out in the photo description - am I that much of a pain in the a**?!?!
That is a neat building and the sculpture pretty amazing - it adds a surreal touch to the building and works extremely well in b&w - well done!!

@Chris: <laughing> You're not a pain at all Chris; I just like ribbing you on the horizon thing. Hope you don't mind.
Great shot
