Oslo never sounded more attractive. It’s not happening any time too soon, but now it’s the latest location on my bucket list 😉 I’m seriously intrigued by what I see in your photos – not just this one.
Very, very, clever shot for this week’s challenge. It’s quite a bit of a sculpture and work of art, out in public like that. You won’t see anything like that in Malaysia or Singapore, they’d have nothing of it. Magnificent images 😀
Thanks Andy! I’m still in the endless process of moving, but I have some drafts saved up that I can post. My new place was supposed to be ready for the 1st of April, but as it turns out it’s not ready until the end of April or perhaps mid-April.
I have no idea who’s the sculptor or what the sculpture is called, but it’s a park/forest area with a lot of sculptures that are all dedicated to women.
Superb B&W composition . So many interpretations……. brought this to mind,
from Leonard Cohen – “Boogie Street”
O Crown of Light, O Darkened One,
I never thought we’d meet.
You kiss my lips, and then it’s done:
I’m back on Boogie Street.
And O my love, I still recall
The pleasures that we knew;
The rivers and the waterfall,
Wherein I bathed with you.
Bewildered by your beauty there,
I’d kneel to dry your feet.
By such instructions you prepare
A man for Boogie Street.
So come, my friends, be not afraid.
We are so lightly here.
It is in love that we are made;
In love we disappear.
Tho’ all the maps of blood and flesh
Are posted on the door,
There’s no one who has told us yet
What Boogie Street is for.
Uh, well, where is it? I want to go in this land!
It’s in my hometown: Oslo, Norway. Let me know if you’re coming. I can be your local tour guide.

Ummm…that’s an intriguing pose! 😛
As long as it’s OPEN invitation, I am there,no matter what it takes to get there
There’s always something kinky going on in Oslo.
You Norwegians are very special but I ❤ it ! 😀 😀 😀
Great shots, Cardinal! We would never have a statue like that over here – too prudish!
Beautiful picture! Good evening
That is a beautiful picture in monochrome.
Great shot! The statue is astounding!
SnortLOL! 🙂

What did the sculptor call this one? I like the angle you used!

Interesting 🙂 In my part of the world women are celebrated as saints (Madonna), or martyrs, but not in this sense.
Cool shot Cardinal!
Thanks Andy! I’ve accepted your challenge. I’ll be posting in May.
