I adore this art piece.
The above shot is taken using the Pano setting on my Iphone. However, instead of panning side to side, I turn the camera on its side and pan up from the bottom. Hence, the curve, which I like!
The reflected skyline view in the sunglasses seems reasonably correct. However, one lens is from the lake view, and the other from the land view.
It faces a parking lot. The car reflections come from quite high up, so sometimes are not as crisp, as usual.

There are reflections in the windows on the other side of the parking lot. These windows are about the 6th story.
These artists are superheroes! Great capture, Resa!
Thanks, Rebecca! Did you get any shots of the Great Pumpkin last night?
Yes! But only from a distance. It was a fabulous moment – one that will stay ever-fresh in my memory. Some said it was the moon, but I’m with the Great Pumpkin.
The moon was in a waxing crescent phase on
Hallowe’en night. Therefore, it had to be the Great Pumpkin!
Wow, Resa!!!! There’s so much going on in there! Stunning work and one more great find!!!! 🙂 xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo from H too! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
It really is a beauty. More and more high rises are getting paint jobs. I really like it!

This so very cool, Sorceress!
And I love that curve, too.
Thanks Thunder!
Ah the curve… it took awhile to learn how to do it, but it works!
It does!
It’s great. Reflections of reflections of reflections.
Thanks Timothy! Lol, cute and accurate comment!
I LOVE this. It’s truly wonderful!!! The colors and the design are fabulous.
I adore it!!!!
Gasp….this is awesome Resa. So otherworldly, reaching up to the sky, Those lips…OMGosh. Love, love , love it!
IKR! I had to have this in my collection, and made a special trip!
It was so great standing in front of it. I could have moved into the parking lot. However, the temperature is plunging and maybe snow soon.
(Sent you a mail with an outline for ep 2 of the mermaids)
So utterly transforms this concrete that passes for architecture, turns ugly into art.
IKR! Street art is the best.
Would love to be able to draw. Such talent. Thanks for sharing these photos with us.
It was a thrill to see this in person. I adore drawing. I wish I had started young. However, just do it…. like me… rock’n’roll art!
Wow! Amazing piece of art! Stunning captures, esp. the pano shot.
TY about the Pano shot!
It truly is a wonderful work of art. I’m very happy you got to see it.
Thanks for the share! 🙂
The reflections are a nice catch, it always pays to be observant around a piece of art work. I particuarly liked the detail on the glasses that you pointed out.
Thanks Ste J! When it comes to outdoor art, I am observant!!
That’s in every way a real great peace of art!
Agree!!!
Haha yeah really great and beautiful
Agree!
Great piece!
Truly!
These are awesome!
Agree Chris!
Beautiful.
Really cool, love the reflection in the glasses. I am into reflections, and shadows, a whole different perspective and world. 😉
Beautiful 💕💕
I agree!
Stunning! Must have been quite challenging for the artist; the fingerprint is special. I like your curvy shot.
Thanks Sidran!! Hope all is well!
Got a bit busy at work , thanks for asking, Resa.
Interesting mural to view with all of its many parts. My first thoughts were
of the artist trying to paint this. For sure, heights aren’t a problem. LOL
I would imagine the best way to view it is from a distance. Well done on curving the photo.
The photograph with the sky behind the mural is perfection.

The artists use scaffolding or cranes, usually cranes. I’m so impressed that they paint such large scale without distortion! xx
Wow. So much to see in there!
It’s a gorgeous work!
Beautifully done!

Dear Resa,
You sent me a message on a night I was so depressed I was ready to give upon life.
I will always be grateful for that message that lifted my spirits.
Wanted to give you a little update. My appointment did not go well. The cardiologist confirmed what my primary doctor told me. I suffered two heart attacks in December and although my blood pressure is currently under control, my heart is getting weaker.
Parts of my heart are not functioning properly, forcing the rest of my heart to work harder. I will have a procedure in April that SHOULD reverse the damage, but there is no guarantee that it will work. He said that 1,000 hearts in my condition will fail to survive this procedure one in a thousand times. So the odds aren’t too bad. Should I decide to not have the procedure he is certain parts of my heart will completey shut down within two to three years.
Thank you for your beautiful support and concern.
I will continue blogging, so we will stay in touch.
Grateful for everything.
STAY BEAUTIFUL AND TALENTED.
XOXO
Dear Lonely,
Thank you for this very sweet message!
I’m saddened to hear of your heart’s problems. However, I know many people who have had heart procedures,
all with positive outcomes. After their procedures, all got better, and had more energy than they had had in years.
I feel the same for you. I see the 2 choices facing you.
One, as you say, is to maintain the status quo of your health, for the last 2-3 years of your life.
Two, is have the operation. It seems a scary thing, but your life will be so much better after.
As you say, the odds are way in your favour.
Whatever you choose, I support your decision. I support you.
xoxo Thank you for saying I am beautiful and talented.
You are beautiful and talented, too! xoxoxo
