Irony

Today is Columbus Day in America. ...It is also Native Americans Day. Hmmm...

Nice shot! In front of a cigar store?

@lilbudhha Looks like it should be, eh?! Actually it was at a junk store of some kind. :-)

[Brian Baptie]

Love the texture and tones!

[Nadine]

Hmmm...indeed. wonderful comp and textures.

[Heather (pixelchix)]

Yeah well, you know my feelings on the subject. Glad you posted this j, what a cool find.

[Richard Tyson]

Like those textures and you've given me pause for thought too.

[Rick Schies]

Yeah, kind of ironic.

[☯ Sarah ☁]

Woah! Great shot tho, love the textures :)

[Mags]

LOVE this! Very nice! Good job!

[Rachel Bell]

Nice capture!

[Kerri]

I didn't know it was Native Americans Day. I didn't know such a day existed.

Cool shot

[Dee L.]

Nice shot! Although he looks a little sad. Did you jet when you went on your lunch walk?

[Denise]

Very ironic. Fabulous texture and emotion.

[stephanie dp]

totally cool image. of course he's sad. . .how could he not be?

[Rudi Teruel]

hmmmmm is right...... hahahahahaha
cool painting, jenn....

[lorihiro]

Columbus overshadows the American Indians once again! I think they need separate holidays!

[Vicki K]

Great shot and artwork:)

[aikiuser (jenn)]

@rudit Thanks, Rudi! Actually, it's a wooden sculpture, just weird editing.
:-)

[aikiuser (jenn)]

@kerristephens Yeah, I think even "Talk Like A Pirates Day" gets more press.

[Reba]

great choice for the day

[aikimomm (phoebe)]

@kerristephens @aikiuser I've never heard of a Native Americans Day either. Then there is Grandparents Day, which is also never recognized. I'd be better off on both counts to learn to Talk Like a Pirate... Regardless, this is a very cool sculpture and great photo of it.

That's exactly what the christians did to stamp out the Pagan festivals. They just made their thing on the same day. Eventually the masses don't give a shit what the holiday is for as long as there's alcohol, right?
