Picasso painting at L'Orangerie, Paris
Fleet Air Arm memorial, London
Archbishop Luwum of Uganda, murdered by Idi Amin and commemorated at Westminster AbbeyThe theme for this week's Photo Hunt is hats. I don't wear a hat and the not-wife doesn't outside of weddings so here are a few photos of subjects with hats.
Very original entry. You take the cake today, for putting so much thought to this. I truly enjoyed this entry.
ReplyDeleteOh what great works of art!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Nice mix of hat photos here Jams. I love that Picasso, so warm in feeling, almost cheerful.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend.
These are great! Like JMB, I love the Picasso.
ReplyDeleteMine will be up at midnight.
i love the hats. makes me smile looking at the first pic
ReplyDeleteHats off to that selection.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteOh those are great creative hats!
ReplyDeleteVery original indeed.
ReplyDeleteCool catch! Hat is a characteristic mode of a person in every moment.... Mine's of too hope you can drop by. Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI wear hats in winter -- with the sub-zero temps we have as I type, I simply must! But nothing as fabulous as those in your photos! Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it! These are all great. The scary part is I have some similar hats that I wear. When my daughter was little she would ask me to take off my wilder hats before we got too near her school. Happy Weekend.
ReplyDeleteREally great take on the theme, and so far very unique. well done.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Those are very interesting hats!
ReplyDeleteGreat photo choices for the theme! Oddly this is the second time today that the topic of Idi Amin came up for me.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend and thanks for your visit :)
I knew you would have some good stuff Jams, I am back in the hunt, stop by.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting -- especially the last. Thanks for sharing and educating.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful and interesting hats, except maybe the last one because it comes with a sad story of murder :(
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!

Awesome. I'm with Photo Cache, this is a great post for a somewhat frivolous theme.All three photos are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a nice weekend!
Hmmm I like the one in the Pope I guess. anyway happy hunting and happy weekend. TC
ReplyDeleteThese are terrific. Nice picks for The Hunt. So interesting.
ReplyDeleteGreat choices today! Good to see you got well so quickly.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
My PH post...
Wonderful choices. Living on the other side of the world, I never get to see these works of art and it is so good to have someone bring them to me. My hat is up.
ReplyDeleteI posted a live version, but yours are wonderful choices! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLovely entries for hats. Thought of posting this kind of entry as I am not a hat type person. But as this area where I live is not so arty I didn't know where to find such statues. So I went back many years in my photo albums for this weeks entry.
ReplyDeletethat's a fine and regal collection of tops!
ReplyDeleteGreat entries!
ReplyDeleteThey all seem serious. They don't like their hats? :)
ReplyDeleteNicely done!
ReplyDeleteMine's up too - kind of a view on the way out...

ReplyDeleteart imitating life. wonderful entry this week =]
ReplyDeletehats off to you ;-D
Great ideas for the theme.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny we both selected our entry this week from the world of Art.
ReplyDeleteYou have done a great selection
I love the Picasso painting! Great take on the theme.
ReplyDeleteStop by and see my photo hunt if you have time.
JyLnC - Hats
I love this.
ReplyDeleteOnce again, you don't disappoint us...fantastic hat photos. I'd love to have that Picasso in my own living room. LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm not a hat person, but I found 'hats' around our home that will work for the hunt. Come on over if you can. I would love to have your company.
And a nice collection of hats it is. I especially like the historical connections with each of the images. This is a great contribution to the theme.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, over at my blog I'm starting a new photo-meme for Sundays based on my Sunday Scenery posts. The details can be found on the Sunday Scenery Photo Meme page on my blog. I hope you'll consider joining the fun.
That is so lovely pictures, keep it up and check out also mine! Enjoy your weekend TC :)
ReplyDeleteI love these shots. Although the Picasso is amazing, I think my favorite is the last statue. I've posted the many hats (sort of) of my 3 year old, Tyler. You can see them here.
ReplyDeleteThese are hats that I dare not wear. Ithink my hat is cuter. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend jams!
i only wear a hat when it is realllly cold outside. like now :) then, a stout wool hat over my ears and a nice wool scarf with a heavy coat and gloves :)
ReplyDeleteVery good selection of hats ! I suppose you don't wear any either !
ReplyDeleteVery nice photos! I love seeing what people used to wear, even if they were a bit funny-looking, like that first hat.
ReplyDeleteI did Photo Hunters today, too! Hope you get a chance to visit.

Excellent take on the theme. A nice solution to a lack of household hats.
ReplyDeleteI really love that middle one. The expression on his face is so haunting.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great mix of hats, jams. Don't think I've seen any others the same.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend.
Hats in works of art.... love it!
ReplyDeleteFabulous hats!
ReplyDeleteVery nice hats! Pls check mine here

ReplyDeleteBeautiful choices. Unique hats. Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out my hat photohunt post.
ReplyDeleteThose are some crazy hats. How do they come up with such fashions?
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
those are some really cool shots! :) thanks for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteInteresting assortment of hats, Jams.
ReplyDeleteDifferent hats for different occupations... These hats you showcased can never cause the wearers headaches, compared to mine *lol*
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a great weekend, Jams :)
A great way to illustrate the theme. I like them all but especially the Picasso. I haven't been to the Orangerie for a good few years.
ReplyDeletebeautiful subjects! great post as well.
ReplyDeleteope you had a great weekend. :)
Great choices for the hat theme!
ReplyDeleteI was baffled with last week's theme for hats, had to search through for someone wearing a hat :P
ReplyDeleteYou've got a cool set of powerful statues with hats on them :)
Sorry that I'm late with the comment.
Good idea to post art. I submitted a few times to Photo Hunt, thinking it had to be original photos.
ReplyDeleteThat Picasso is one of my personal favorites, by the way.
