Being Crooked by myautofocuslife

Being Crooked

Still at the zoo, and I was distracted by a bridge! 8D

The shadows, I thought, were marvellously crooked. There's just something about those up-and-down, not-straight, all-over lines that I really liked.

William Blake: “Improvement makes straight roads; but the crooked roads without improvement are roads of genius."
Nice distraction! I like the shadows a lot!

Loving those shadows, there's something almost cartoonish about the main crooked line!

This is crooked every way possible to the point that it looks very solid.

This is really nice. I've posted a lot of fence pix myself... not sure that I ever noticed fences before starting 365, and now I slow down at every one!
April 7th, 2012  
genius! and brilliant (literally and figuratively). much as i was amused by the batballs, i prefer to be distracted and amused by shadows and crooked fences. but frankly, i thought they were some kind of a snake! wonderful shot, livia.

Good eye! This is a great bridge and great shadows!
April 8th, 2012  
A great, big, not-so-crooked, brightly lit and a little whimsical "THANK YOU!" to all! Thank you for taking the time to stop by. I am grateful for your encouraging comments. So happy that you like this bridge shot. The instant I saw the shadows, I knew I had to have a photograph of them.

Again, thank you very much!
April 8th, 2012  
Great capture and great quote from William Blake. The crookedness is what makes life great. If everything was perfect, how bored would we all be.
April 8th, 2012
