Description

My nephew made this stone stack and I found it very fascinating. Have a beautiful and stressless week. We have cool but sunny weather this morning. Thank you so much for viewing and commenting on my previous post and special warm thanks go to those, who added it to their favorites. :)

Yes it could be a snowman but what I wonder is he frightened about? Lol. Great b/w.

Fantastic b&w shot. Such stone stacks I have seen here in the woods more often. No idea, who was building that. Sometimes they consist of 8-10 stacked stones.

Superb in black and white. A very human construction!

Just look at that! Well seen Helle! It works beautifully in monotone! I can do with a stressfree week - but that will probably only happen after my son's wedding!

I love these kinds of stone sculputures...a few of them tend to pop up in Grand Rapids, Michigan (a bit north of Chicago, and I need to go photograph them!) You captured this perfectly! I love the choice of black and white as it makes this look like something very ancient. It's quite beautiful and I laughed at the idea of a petrified snowman! That would be an archeological wonder, sort of like the Vetruvian Snowman? WOW. I think you've started something!
