Modern in Mayberry


D70 35mm

I was driving around Beloit Wisconsin one evening and saw this modern sculpture that was totally out of place in this city. Most of the town is about the1930s, with people setting out in front of the houses and just talking.

Cool sculture. It reminds me of wisps of smoke.

Did you get any shots of the 1930's part of Beloit?

BTW, what the heck were you doing in Benoit, anyway? :)

Great shot! I like the how the sculpture slowly brings your attention to the serene blue sky :)

But you're right, it really does scream 'out of place' here -- the low-density housing, the round trees, the lack of... people ;) It makes you really wonder what inspired the sculpture & who was making it... Very interesting!

Super find :D

Lea, the sculpture also reminds me of your "Blade of Grass" picture :).
