Playing With Statues (26 photos)

Ever looked at a statue and thought, "What would happen if we made this masterpiece a little… mischievous?" You’re not alone! Every day, people worldwide are adding a twist to statues, bringing them into the world of "dudeism." Imagine classic sculptures sporting sunglasses or historic figures wielding quirky accessories. It’s not just about fun; these makeovers invite us to reimagine public spaces and remind us that art doesn’t have to be serious.

Bright honey fungi
Conceal bitter truth beneath -
death in black laces.

#haikuSaturday
#fungi

Photo of a clump of honey fungus (Armillaria sp.) growing among grass on a forest floor. The fungus spreads through black bootlace-like structures underground which infect tree roots, causing them to rot, and eventually can kill even the largest forest trees.

The ship sails on through evening’s glow,
Where day meets night in calm below.

Golden rays of sunlight stream dramatically through a break in dark clouds over a calm sea at sunset. A distant silhouette of a ship glides along the horizon near a shadowed coastline, while dark rocks in the foreground catch glimmers of gold reflected on the rippling water.

Nice. Liked the 'window briefly catching the sun' part.

what passes through

we are not what remains
but what passes through

rain, light, sorrow-
each finds a way in and out

I used to think the self
was a vessel of permanence
now I see it’s a window
briefly catching the sun

War creates two categories of persons: those who
outlive it and those who don’t.

Both carry wounds.

when the universe dreams

perhaps the stars
are fragments of thought
the universe forgot to finish

perhaps we are
the half-remembered dream
of something too vast to wake

and when we disappear
it will only be
the dream turning over
to face another dawn

what stays

a sparrow lands
where the rain just ended

in its small weight
the whole world gathers

I think of you,
how we once spoke
as if time were a door
we could hold open

what we held
was only this moment
but all of time
was folded inside it

Tree rainbows!

Colourful turkey tail shrooms growing closely together on a moss covered branch. There's heaps of colours in these little buddies! Green is dominate with stripes of pinky/red, rust, light blue and a hint of yellow.

after the storm

the fields shimmer with endings
each drop a tiny world
where the sun rehearses return

in the distance, a road
loses itself in haze-
I follow anyway

perhaps meaning was never
what waited at the end
but the walking itself

The core holds its place
The skeletal truth persists
A frame built for hope

in the palm of sky
each fold carries the weight
of light and longing
and a finger pointing
to the moon I cannot name
