Definitely an innovative adaptation of the more traditional tied-together sheets used for impromptu escapes.
And here's another piece of curious hardware...Casanova's dog tag! Curious and curiouser.
Bonnie of Pixel Dust Photo Art is hosting an exhibit of "minimalist" pictures in her virtual gallery this weekend that might pique your curiosity. I think the rusted dog tag qualifies, but if I want to get really hardcore with minimalism, I think I could do no better--or worse--than with this other strange feature found on the Carmel Casanova's wall...

(don't ask me how!)
Possibly a peep hole?
We will never know.
Oh goodness this just keeps getting more interesting. Love your fun edit.
ReplyDeleteIda,
DeleteWhen I photographed that mysterious configuration I had no idea just how far the intrigue would go! Glad you like it.
Hole in the wall,
ReplyDeletesuspense and intrigue.
Where next!
FoxySue,
DeleteWhere next? Possibly rehab!
Well, the original Casanova had nothing on this modern one... We're really getting into some funny territory now!
ReplyDeleteJann,
DeleteI think I stumbled upon Casanova's box of tricks!
I much prefer the sound of "peeping casanova" to "peeping tom", Lynne! You've made a wonderful piece of art out of nothing at all. Now THAT takes talent! Amazing how much art you have produced by having the prescience to photograph an interesting piece of hardware with its accompanying graffiti.
ReplyDeleteBonnie,
DeleteHa! what a difference a name makes. A peeping Casanova sounds a bit naughty but a peeping Tom is just downright nasty. I love your description of "making a wonderful piece of art out of nothing at all." Makes me feel like a magician! As Bullwinkle used to say to Rocky "Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!"
Ooooh - on a second look at the SOOC hole, I see the barrel of a gun! Perhaps I've listened to CNN a bit too much lately?!
ReplyDeleteYikes! I'm lucky I got out of there alive!
DeleteWOW!!! this is amazing!!
ReplyDeleteCurrie,
DeleteOh, I'm so pleased that you think so! It is a little bit "over the top."
i think you've shot a hole in one,,,
ReplyDeleteMichael,
DeleteI'm glad that you're not teed off.
Out here in the wild, wild west, we have many, many places named Hole-In-The-Wall. Of course, here it is always a rocky formation with lots of huge holes where outlaw gangs would hide out. Maybe, that's the gun Bonnie up there sees?!
ReplyDeleteStickup,
DeletePerfect! Yes, this is a real hole in the wall place! Didn't even think of that (duh!) Brings to mind a Bruce Cockburn tune, "Who put the bullet hole in Peggy's kitchen wall?http://youtu.be/sAcqr3MYMmM
Brilliant colours and textures....I'm focusing on that metal tag!
ReplyDeleteIs there more to come?

Ruby,
DeleteYes, I do have a couple more photos of Casanova's hole-in-the-wall hideaway. You shouldn't encourage me!
But speaking of brilliant colours and textures, I've been delighting in this tourism video promoting the "natural" wonders of Scotland:

DeleteYou have left the perfect minimalist comment! Thank you.
