Tuan Nguyen Sculpture in San Diego...

You can see more of Tuan Nguyen's art and his biography here...

Linking to The Creative Exchange today...

Try as I might I have not been able to google and find the name of this artful statue, or the artist, near the Embarcadero in San Diego where I snapped the shot with my camera last week. I did not write it down at the time. But it has been fun to play with the effects on picnik.com until I reached the point in experimenting of having the "look" I was trying to achieve. I used multiple fades and exposure adjustments but no texture so to speak yet...the original is below this one...

Can't help with the name of the statue Kathy, but the work you did on this image is just wonderful!
Beautiful color and softness, and such a great composition.

Thank you so much for sharing with us this week at The Creative Exchange.

Have a wonderful day!

What a beautiful sculpture... I am intrigued to know who or what it represents but I shall have to use my imagination for that.

FROM THE WRITER OF DOWN THE EYRIE ROAD
Originally, when I began this blog, I was 64 and opened

with the following lyrics from the Beatles' song:

When I get older losing my hair,

Many years from now,

Will you still be sending me a valentine

Birthday greetings bottle of wine?

If I'd been out till quarter to three,

would you lock the door,

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four.

************************

Now 67, I hope to blog till I am 74 or 104.

Thank you followers & friends

Here it is 2018. This March I turn 71. It's time to revamp, weed out the worst and make a book of sorts containing the best of the blog. It consists of prose poetry and short stories; they are pieces of me that I have been able to share, with pleasure, with you...considering how energy often was channeled elsewhere, the blog has an average of 300 visitors monthly from around the world. Thank you for stopping by.
