“And a sentimentalist, my dear Darlington, is a man who sees an absurd value in everything, and doesn’t know the market place of any single thing.”
– Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere’s Fan
Not really sure about these.
Woke at four am with an idea.
Why not take a shot of a coin with the EU Parliament building in the background?
Not that hard to try, as the EU Parliament is right outside the window.
The scariest part of this (apart from the fact that I am dreaming of posts for #photo101)?
What if that euro coin fell off and landed on some poor soul’s head from the ninth floor?
If that had happened, I wouldn’t be writing this.
Penny euro for your thoughts?

One question: are you taking lodgers? I’d so want to live in a city instead of a middle of nowhere… And strikes or no strikes, I like what I see in your photos. The coin idea is excellent and superbly executed: I was thinking you glued it to the rail!
I’m with you there, I love living in the centre of a city…and thank you…..I used a small piece of sticky tape…it was so not safe….and I am glad you like what you see….
…and looking forward to your next story 😉
Please don’t look forward to my next story, it is scheduled to post in fifteen minutes, but it happens to be a sort of anti-husband story, even if tongue-in-cheek…
Ha! I knew you had to stick the coin to the spot somehow! 😀 And I do like what I see. A lot. Also, don’t be disturbed if you dream about Photo 101, I dream about blogging on the regular. Perhaps I am disturbed though.
Ah, I might learn something useful for my own life from your post then…
Guess we’re both disturbed..
and, thank you again…
These photos are wonderful I wish I had not read about the sticky tape bit i shall just pretend you have an amazing knack for making things balance. The sky in one of the shots looks like an acopalypse might happen at any moment. Your right though ouch that would really hurt if the coin fell but not sure the tape would stop that with a mighty gust of wind 😀 Great shots x
Me, balanced…. Thank you again!! 😉
haha true..winks
😉
Very cool pics. I initially thought you had rolled it down a pipe.
Thank you, no I cheated with sticky tape 😉
I am speechless ………………………………….
Ohhh…thank you Andy!
I think the pictures are executed perfectly but I wouldn’t have recognised the EU parliament or the Euro without help.
Thank you’ really appreciate that…I do try to find a different perspective 🙂
