#meermittwoch #seawednesday #blackandwhite #photography

A black and white photograph of a sandy beach in the foreground and the sea in the distance, with a small rocky island in the middle of the beach, still surrounded by water, its reflection shimmering on the wet sand. The weather is slightly hazy, large waves are rolling onto the beach, and three surfers are visible in the water.

Photographie noir et blanc d'une plage de sable en avant-plan et de la mer au loin, avec une petite île rocheuse sur la plage, encore entourée d'eau en plein milieu, qui se reflète sur le sable mouillé. Le temps est un peu brumeux, de grosses vagues roulent sur la plage et trois surfers sont visibles dans l'eau.

#holgersfotos #fotovorschlag #photosuggestion #foto #fotografie #photo #photography

Blick von der Rialtobrücke in Venedig über den Canal Grande hin zu einigen Restaurants und Gondeln. Es ist Nacht, die Szene wird von wenigen Lampen an Häusern, Fenstern und den Außenbereichen der Restaurants erleuchtet.

Utility boxes in San Francisco, displaying Filipino vocabulary words. Some personal thoughts in the alt text.

#photography #streetphotography #streetart #Filipinoculture #sanfrancisco #philippines

Series of photos showing utility boxes on a city street, displaying flash card-style words in modern Tagalog and ancient Baybayin script, with an accompanying illustration and bordered by patterns inspired by Philippine textiles. This one shows the word “Yakap” (embrace) with a picture of two men hugging.

I’ve called New York home for decades and love my city. But I have to say I felt profoundly SEEN when I visited San Francisco, in a way that I haven’t felt in any other American city and didn’t realize I’d missed and craved. Tagalog translations were matter-of-factly included everywhere, from plaques to museum pamphlets, and even utility boxes in the streets reflected my background and first language. It was as if the entire city, institutionally, was telling me “We recognize the whole of who you are and you are welcome here,” and it shook me to my core. I’m sure Filipinos who actually live there can point out the ways the city falls short of its promise, but this was what I experienced emotionally, and I’ll always be grateful to SF for that.

Monument to the Unknown Bureaucrat

Magnús Tómasson (1994), Reykjavik

#FotoVorschlag - Öffentliche Kunst // Public art
#monochrome #monochromemonday #fotomontag #blackandwhite #photography

Black and white photograph of a sculpture depicting a worker in a suit, with shoes and a suitcase in his right hand, his left hand in his trouser pocket. A huge block of Icelandic volcanic basalt replaces the upper half of his body and his head, the same block from which the lower half was carved. The worker "walks" on cobblestones, with a low stone wall behind him and the small artificial lake of Reykjavik visible beyond.

Photographie noir et blanc d'une sculpture représentant un travailleur habilllé en complet, avec chaussures et valise à la main droite, sa main gauche dans sa poche de pantalon. Un énorme bloc de basalte volcanique islandais remplace la moitié supérieure de son corps et sa tête, le même à partir duquel le bas de son corps a été sculpté. Le travailleur "marche" sur du pavé, avec un muret de pierres derrière lui et le petit lac artificiel de Reykjavik visible au-delà.
