I've told you in my additional comment on THIS ONE: "I've 'found' and captured more 'strange' sculptures."

So here's a picture of a sculpture in a public area on the peninsula South-Beveland, Zeeland, The Netherlands, showing a young sheep on a pedestal. The sheep has turned its head 180 degrees, so it seems like it's spotting the flying by aircraft. The sculpture was created in 2006 by the Dutch sculptor Wies de Bles, and has the name 'Young sheep and its amazement'.

My entry for Manic Monday.

PS: to prevent any misunderstanding, I like you to know that the images of this series of strange sculptures are taken on different properties throughout Zeeland, and not on just one property/area.

This is about as "manic" as they get. To be perfect, though, I think the sheep should be motorized and able to shake its head back and forth, as in disbelief at its own creation. Too funny for color TV.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

.....'Young sheep and its amazement'.......

I always thought in Art there was little that could amaze me but creds to C because this one scores a 10 on my personal Weird O meter.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
