I admire the poet Brian Bilston. Whilst many of his poems are heartfelt, others are silly! This is one of the latter 🙂

A bold black-and-white photograph captures a surreal, provocative urban moment. In the background, an oversized, slender wooden sculpture of a male figure stands with trousers open, urinating nonchalantly. The figure’s exaggerated height and thinness, combined with its indifferent posture, create a stark contrast to the everyday setting. In the foreground, a passerby—only half her face and one arm visible—appears to be unexpectedly caught in the stream and turns away, adding a layer of dark humor and surprise. The composition uses depth, high-contrast lighting, and framing to emphasize the tension between the sculpture’s audacity and the passerby’s reaction, creating a scene that is both absurd and thought-provoking. Ein mutiges Schwarz-Weiß-Foto hält einen surrealen, provokativen urbanen Moment fest. Im Hintergrund steht eine überlebensgroße, schlanke hölzerne Skulptur einer männlichen Figur mit offener Hose und pinkelt unbefangen. Die übertriebene Größe und Schlankheit der Figur, kombiniert mit ihrer gleichgültigen Haltung, schaffen einen scharfen Kontrast zur alltäglichen Umgebung. Im Vordergrund scheint eine Passantin—nur halb ihr Gesicht und ein Arm sichtbar—unerwartet vom Strahl getroffen zu werden und wendet sich ab, was der Szene eine Schicht schwarzen Humors und Überraschung hinzufügt. Die Komposition nutzt Tiefe, kontrastreiches Licht und Bildausschnitt, um die Spannung zwischen der Dreistigkeit der Skulptur und der Reaktion der Passantin zu betonen und schafft so eine Szene, die sowohl absurd als auch zum Nachdenken anregend ist.

Well established shelf fungus on an old, robust Holly tree. While I imagine he's a fun guy, I'm assuming he leans more sycophant than symbiont.

A photograph of a red brick wall with a grey concrete footing and a black wood framed double window each with four lites. Drain pipes in the corner at the left of the frame are covered in dozens of stickers. On a patch of the grey footing at the bottom right corner of the frame a phrase has been stenciled in black all capital letters. It reads: "Fabulous nonsense can manipulate a smart mind" Photo taken in London's Brick Lane area.
Fabulous Nonsense.

The "Chum" sculpture. Hard to describe. A very large white sculpture of a figure that seems to be made almost from white pastry rolls, with enormous ears. It stands defiantly on a white plinth with hands on hips in a very spare grey, almost jail-like, space in a gallery.
The "Together" sculpture. A sculpture of two figures hugging. They have almost Mickey Mouse bodies down to the shorts and white gloves, but the heads are bulbous with heart-shapes for ears and two crosses for eyes. Colours of greys and white. However cartoonish, they do seem to be really enjoying the hug chest to chest

Not nonsense; made me smile.
From an exhibition of work by KAWS (Brian Donnelly).
Cartoon-human hybrids have a pop art vibe & stand maybe 2-3m (6-10ft) tall.
This exhibition was about our deep need for companionship.

Airport sign at Charles de Gaulle announces the status of a flight as being On Time for its scheduled departure at 13:30. However, they've deliberately put three Xs in the location where the plane's intended or final destination is usually listed.
Large airport display at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport for Agents De Voyage or Tour Operators. It lists all the information associated with departing flight tours. Our flight was FPO 355W, set to depart at 1330 or 1:30 pm. While all the other places have their destinations listed (such as, Montreal, Palermo, Tunis, Palma de Majorque, Olbia, and the like), our destination has deliberately been kept secret with just xxx. French airport officials at Paris CDG actually agreed to hide the plane's destination on every monitor throughout the airport. In fact, our hosts made sure that the pilots didn't tell us either. We literally did not know where we were headed until 10 minutes after we set foot on the ground.

Friends' secret destination party only had a few hints, like "Don't pack too much or the plane can't take off & crashes into a 🏔️!" 😳😬
Airport officials agreed to XXX the ✈️'s destination throughout CDG! #Photography

A statue of a black cow with white blotches is standing upright in a human position. It depicts the famous Marilyn Monroe photo of a street vent blowing her skirt upwards. The cow has a white dress on that is blowing upwards, while she tries to modestly hold the skirt down. Marilyn has red lipstick and red-painted hoofs. Her head is looking upward as she purses her lips. The statue is in front of the San Luis Obispo Repertory Theater in Downtown.

One of San Luis Obispo's nonsensical and wacky cow statues. This one is Marilyn Monroe, placed outside the San Luis Obispo Repertory Theater. (She needs some TLC!)

Collage of 4 photos showing people out in nature in 2 different activities. Two of the photos show people climbing or rappelling down the side of a Swedish mountain. The two other shots show people attempting to cross from one side of the river to the other, over gushing whitewater rapids, and using only one rope for your feet and one rope hanging overhead. With those two things, you were supposed to inch your way just inches above the water and over to the other side.

More zany outdoor frivolities, this time involving a mountain waterfall, rappelling, whitewater rapids, & a 2-rope "bridge," none of which I was remotely dressed for! #ECK #Photography #ColorADay #MountainMonday #SensoryArt #Nature #Hiking #WaterfallWed #Scape

A close-up photograph of a pedestrian crosswalk signal button mounted on a metal pole. The white rectangular sign features a black embossed icon of a person walking, which has been modified with white spray-paint stenciling to resemble a skeleton’s ribcage and pelvis. Below the figure is a black arrow pointing left. The sign has a yellow border, and the background shows a blurred asphalt road and sidewalk.

An origami shirt and necktie meticulously folded from a United States dollar bill. The shirt features a crisp, pointed collar and short sleeves, with a matching tie positioned down the center. The intricate green and white engravings of the currency are visible across the folds, creating a patterned aesthetic. The origami piece is centered against a soft, textured background.

Collage of three photos, each showing a person outdoors in nature, high on a Swedish mountain right under the Arctic circle. A popular tourist activity in the area is apparently boot throwing. In each photo in the collage, the person is shown completely bent over, both their hands between their legs and angled upwards, as a green rubber Wellington boot flies from their hands and is captured in mid air.

Boot-tossing -a popular tourist game that might date to Viking times- on a 🏔️ below the Arctic Circle.
I fared better than the axe, not as well as crossing a waterfall stream on an alleged rope "bridge."

A photo of a daisy on top of red metal wall of a bridge. The daisy appears to have a flower at each end of it's stalk. That's because I cut off another daisy's head and popped the flower part onto the stalk of the other daisy Behind the bridge is a blurry image of a canal and fields
