We did that one not too long ago. Last time you offered bonus points for naming the event and camera. |

Arrgh! time to find another one... my memory is going,, I used to remember these things... OTOH, I think it was actually another shot of the same guy on the same day that I used last time... that said, caption this: Rodin Garden 10-25-15 by Paul Sullivan, on Flickr Bonus points if you can tell me where it is, without looking at the Flickr page... as always, Copyright © 2016, Paul Sullivan, all rights reserved... .

only three captions, another 24 hours are called for: as that would take us into the outrage, I may judge early... . Hello, from Albany, CA!... |

At this point perhaps a Proctologist might be in order. "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Well, only six captions, but I'll muddle through... Honorable mention for JaundicedEye for correctly identifying the sculpture: this is, indeed, a real, cast-in Rodin's lifetime, copy of The Thinker J.E. didn't say where it was, though... (there are 20 or 21 authorized casts, in two sizes, this is the smaller size...) In Third place, Carlos for: 1, 2, 3, 4, .......998, 999, 1000, 1001 – darn I think I counted that one twice. 1, 2, 3, 4,..... In Second Place, JaundicedEye for: At this point, perhaps a Proctologist might be in order. In First Place, and next pic post goes to Sirius B for: While waiting for Godot to appear, I stared at Medusa :-( ... although looking at the Medusa turned you to stone, not bronze... For the question I posed: This copy of The Thinker by August Rodin is in the garden of the Glyptotek Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark. There is another authorized copy (much more local to SETIcentral...) at the Palace of the Legion of Honor in San Francisco, CA... and it's the larger size, too! Strange, when you think about it, that both copies of the statue that I've seen are near salt water... a PM will go out as soon as this gets prüfred and posted... ;-) . Hello, from Albany, CA!... |
