"City exchange" - Daily Photo theme day
The idea of this month's theme is to show a photo from our city that looks like, refers to, or reminds us of somewhere else. The above photo is part of Queen Califia's Magical Circle, a sculpture garden by Niki de Saint Phalle in Escondido. I hope this made you think of Gaudi's Güell Park in Barcelona, or of Niki's other works around the globe such as the Stravinsky Fountain in Paris, the Tarot Garden in Tuscany, Noah's Ark in Jerusalem or somewhere else ???

I like your photograph. Colors. Conception. Neat stuff. I don't know much about where it is.
My Theme Day portrait is of the "Peashooter" and the National Museum of the United States Air Force. Hope you like flying.
I too thought it from Barcelona. Nice photo.
I've seen Gaudi's work in Barcelona, and it did remind me of it! Good job!
Love this photo...but even more I like the breasted lady from the Tarot Garden! Thanks for the links and the laugh ;-)

Great photo, super theme, so creative.

Funky!

Thanks for visiting me on theme day. I have been out of computer contact and unable to comment on others.
It is nice to be reminded of photos from Barcelona by Bob and Carlos.
I like this! Makes me laugh.
Thanks to everyone for stopping by! I'm glad that some thought of Barcelona - I wasn't sure if this was too far away from the theme. Also good to get a laugh and/or to introduce this great artist. I just love Niki de Saint Phalle's work!
