Skeleton Structure

Saw this weird skeleton structure by the river side of the Dora, in the Eco Park.


The skeleton of the structure is preserved and integrated in the design of the Envipark Technology Park and the Dora Park housed the bar finishing department and the small iron warehouse during the Ferriere period .
A plate located near the new Service Center remembers the former function of the area and the discontinued activity at December 31, 1989.

CDP October Theme : Sensual

The October Theme of CDP is Sensual, not a easy theme for me, as it is not my usual interest to capture sensual images...Anyway here are my two images for the theme day.


Religious images can be sensual, such as the half naked Christ on the cross, the naked San Sebastian with all the arrows poked in him, or this Hindu ( Tibetian ? ) statue.....
