A link to an article about the photographer, Maarten VAN DER KAMP an Amsterdam street photographer.
It is also a sales site for a book of his photographs, including the one nighthawks posted.
thanks for that—I had no idea I was posting a truncated photo of a great painting……I’ll leave the other one, but I posted the full size version that
you provided, so that all is required to see it properly is to click on it.
The girls will do that too you. 🙂
Iv’e had plenty of opportunities to sit with the girls in full gab. It’s enlightening, and sometimes a tad bit scary. 😀

Yikes!
That’s one bully who will NOT be kicking sand in his face anymore.
Good left jab.
Hitting a clay golem is not a wise move.
Not clay… purely a sand sculpture.
By Abe Waterman, from PEI, Canada… (Prince Edward Island?)…. in a contest.
Perhaps hitting a sand golem is no wiser, though.
…
What I was impressed by… well, one of the things…. is his cutting or molding the surface in flat bits to look like a rustic wood carving.
Looks like he has pressed a block of sand into the crook of the nearest knee, to do some more work…
It looks more fully carved, next to him, below.
Yup……P.E.I. (or PEI in this ungrammatical age) = Prince Edward Island.
I love the eyes. I see the artist’s (large head) interpretation of the art critic (punching).
..
Fun! 😀
HaHaHa! Great photo!

Damn! Got to get that drip fixed.
Love it!
Slow night.
So what’s the deal, Nighthawks?
If it’s a parody, based on the identity of the “customer” in front, I don’t recognise him.
The lighting is much warmer, and it looks like openings have been added…
a possible entrance from the hallway on the right… and the curved glass may be missing from the corner window, making a service pass-through…
all of which break the dark isolation of the original. Maybe that’s the point?
….
Do you know who did it, or why?
A search using this image only found the original painting and several obvious parodies, instead.

Thank you!
I’d thought it was a work of art… but these fellows don’t seem to take it very seriously.
Too bad there are no subtitles.
The girls will do that too you. 🙂

Find the mouse amongst the squirrels.
Found it.
Looks like lots of cats, with a few assorted nuts and stuff.
The mouse is easy to see.
That those fluffy-tailed cats are supposed to be squirrels… not so much.
Oh well… they’re cute fuzzy creatures.
Especially the one with a big toothy smile, and the one lying back patting his full belly, presumably having eaten one of the apples…
which I had thought were tomatoes till I saw that core.
thanks, susan!
I’m with Arfside and Susan, the squirrels’ ears look more like cats’ ears.
As Susan said, the mouse is easy to spot.
no time today for puzzles. :((
Found it easily.
Cleo and Clara agree on one thing.
Claude’s failings?
funny!
hot cross buns
Wait. The phone doesn’t get lighter when you delete stuff from it?
Good morning Cleo phans!

Y’all have a great day. (((((HuGz!)))))
Is a Beagle a Hound?
If it is i have half a hound to hug?
Both the doggies get hugs anyway!
(Not the cat. She has bad attitude about hugging.)
Yes. A beagle is a hound.
You just can’t win with those girls, Claude.
I can picture Eric Burdon playing the lead in Clockwork Orange.
