Good afternoon, friends!
Here is my entry for the PhotoChain Challenge - 71th Edition hosted by @davidesimoncini. The keywords for this week are Pink and Old Man, picked by the previous winners of the challenge: @ainie.kashif and myself.
(My personal keyword is... Art.)
What a daunting task, to find a Pink Old Man... (or an Old Man with something Pink in the same photo.) I sure wasn't counting on participating on the contest this week, with such a difficult theme... but a stroke of luck has come my way. I was walking around the beach today and I found out this piece of art, which was installed very recently, just 10 days ago.
This artwork was entirely built using trash found at the local beaches. Yep, that's right... they put the trash to good use, to raise awareness so that people take better care of their environment.
This artwork was located at a place called Largo dos Pescadores, which translates to something like "The Fishermen's Plaza". And it is exactly that... a plaza for the fishermen. All those little huts you see are used by the local fishermen to store their material.
I approached the sculpture so that I could take a closer shot. Below you can see a little better the materials used in its development. I find it incredible how they managed to make the eyes look so real. Amazing work. 😎
On the next shot you have the description of the piece and the objective of the project. Please follow the link to open the full size in a new window so that you can read the text.
As you can see in one of the messages above, Tio Rão, the name of the sculpture... was also the name of a local fisherman, who died of old age on January last year. Here he is below, on a photo I found on a page about local news of the village.
Here you have a wider view of the Fishermen's Plaza... There's also a little playground for the kids, some of whom will become the fishermen of the future...
And... where is fish, you can also find... cats!!! Here is one of them, resting... while she awaits for some fish. Yes, it's a little cat girl, I saw her titties. Ihihiih! 😽
I hope you enjoyed these photos as much as I enjoyed my walk along the beach. 🌞

PhotoChain Challenge - 71th Edition.
Блин... Тебе удалось найти розового старика. :)
Ты еще помнишь русский язык? Изучаешь или бросил?
Добрый день Александр!
Да, я ещё учусь. Как сказать "Slow but steadily"?
Но я тоже учусь о биткоине. На английском языке. 😆
Привет. "Медленно, но неуклонно"?
Do you learn the language slowly, but steadily?
Или в каком контексте это сказано? Or in what context is this said?
Спасибо.
Да, ты хорошо мне понимал. 😆
Thank you very much, @thekittygirl! 😊
What a wonderful artwork, and a fabulous tribute to Tio Rão and the environment! The sculpture is amazing, and the board underneath the artwork is perfect! Thanks for sharing this! 💜
Thanks a lot for your sweet comment! Yeah, I liked this sculpture a lot, too. 🤗
Wow, I didn't expect to find an entry like your one, very "different" !LUV 1 Thank you to join in and welcome to the edition.
Thanks a lot! It was indeed lucky. Or else I wouldn't have any photo for the contest. 😊
Spot on my friend. You just could have nailed it again this week. I'm shot this week. Can't find anything unless I wear pink myself and enter the contest haha.
You were right. I won this round. 😊
Maybe you'll take the next one!
Maybe. Depends on whether I can find anything. Art and love. I might skip this altogether too. Can't think of anything just yet 🤔
Congratulations, your post has been added to Pinmapple! 🎉🥳🍍
Did you know you have your own profile map?
And every post has their own map too!
Want to have your post on the map too?
WOW, he does have pink face, the playground looks awesome, and the cat is sure looks cute.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it! 🤗
