van Gogh's terrace

Well, not really, of course, but Vincent might have felt at home here with all these sunflowers. Caught this shot on Saturday while walking from one museum to the next while participating in SlowArt Day. As you can see, I found my own serendipitous art.

Nice piece of photography...
Were you a host or a visitor at "Slow Art Day"? How was the experience?

Olivier said...

ah ah très bien vu, un balcon très fleuri ;o)

Someone sure likes sunflowers! Very cheery, nice catch. There seems to be a problem with the link, but I'd love to hear more about SlowArt Day.

I think Vincent would approve.

Indeed you did find your own art. Fun photo, though I can't honestly say I'd like to live right there ... but I'm glad somebody does have such a colorful place to call home -:)

I like this photo, it is so romantic and colorful. Only that air conditioner unit doesn't belong to this beautiful photo. But Bibi, you say that you don't like to use Photo shop.

I think some of the best photography is serendipitous! Love this for many reasons...it's full of interest, very colorful, and sharp as a tack.

In fact, I conjured up the spirit of Van Gogh hisself and told him about it, but he just looked confused and said in an English accent, "Hey what, I can't 'ear you!"

I think it's nice that there are some icky things, like that A/C and some romantic things (like the wall color nd sunflowers and terrace. Those contrasts make it interesting. I bet whoever lives there is happy to have a terrace.
