I'm very late again (and I'm cheating again, though I prefer to describe it as lateral thinking).
The first two (scanned) photos are from our trip to the Copper Canyon in Mexico 1997.
An incredibly spectacular place.
This was not our first visit to Mexico. About two years earlier we visited Taxco, the Silver City.
A beautiful place on the hillside, it used to be a centre for silver mining.
And finally, just to prove that I can do things properly, a brass bowl from Bida in Nigeria.
This, along with several others, was bought by my parents when we lived there.

Beautiful photos, A and the last one makes me think to several things Pierre's parents brought with from North Africa when they come to live in France.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you think "out of the box"... loved all the photos! Great Post!

Gaj38, unfortunately your link doesn't seem to work. I'll see if I can track you down :)
Your trip looks amazing - beautiful photos and very interesting to look at. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteCopper Canyon looks beautiful! I do not think it's cheating for the "metal" theme. It's fun to see different interpretations!
ReplyDeleteI think those are great for the metal theme. I like thinking posts where it's a different take on the theme. Beautiful shots of Cooper Canyon and Taxco and then the brass bowl to finish off your metal post was perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love the literary license you took with the word metal - great pictures!
ReplyDeleteLovely photographs. Great take on the theme. I love Mexico.
ReplyDeleteI would love to Visit those spots in Mexico* Beautiful Country down there*
ReplyDelete;)) Peace*
Good shots! I like the brass bowl most especially! Really unique.
ReplyDeleteThat was cheating for the cause, and as such is easily excused. Great views (but I am prejudiced, loving this type of scenery).
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting, and have a great week!
Terrific post! Wonderful interpretation and the bowl is perfect. Happy Easter!
ReplyDeletewow, makes me want to go there, my original photo post had some old farming iron and other farmhouse items, I added a second entry because of something I saw while visiting other photo hunts, please stop by both, happy easter
