Phiti Hunt - Curved
The theme for this week's Photo Hunt is curved. Here is a photo taken at the Musee d'Orsay in August. I won;t be around until Saturday afternoon. I will visit then
I love that place. I haven't been for a few years so it's time I went again. Fortunately I didn't decide on this week because they've been on strike, along with various other museums and national monuments. Sad for the people who made the trip.
great minds think alike hehe my entry for the week is in the same league as yours- homes of art which are artworks themselves =]
ReplyDeletehave a good one!
Love this photo! What a great looking curved place. I'd love to visit that museum.
ReplyDeleteI love the photo of Ted and the dangerous animals too. :)
Happy weekend!
Very curvy.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite museums, great choice :-)
ReplyDeleteLike Cherry Pie, the Musee d'Orsay is one of my favorite museums -- in my case, for its building as well as its collection! :)
ReplyDeleteI recognized that place at once, without even reading. It is a wonderful museum for its contents as well as its building.
ReplyDeleteWhy "Phiti" Hunt? Was that a typo? If so, it's a funny sounding one! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful!! wonderfully curved for the theme...
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend.
My curved
I have always wanted to go to this museum. It hadn't been turned into a museum when I was there and I saw many of the artworks at the Jeu de Paume.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive architecture.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the humour of your self-description.
So many cool curves in an amazing museum. Loved my visit there many moons ago. Great photo and choice for the theme this week.
ReplyDeleteSpectacular building!
ReplyDeleteBut, uh, what happens when a boy accidentally hits a home run in the vacant lot next door? Or if there's a hailstorm?
My Curved photos are up. I hope you get some time to visit me! Have a wonderful weekend.
