Faces on Friday - Set in Stone - Marta - Italy





My photos for my theme ' Faces on Friday' are perhaps not quite what you expected me to post! However as I have always been intrigued by these 'Faces Set in Stone' that are mounted on the railings next to the Fishermens Beach in Marta I thought it would be fun to share them with you here.

Nobody I have spoken to in Marta knows anything about them. If anyone from there, or anywhere else in the world, knows anything about these particular face sculptures please do let me know.

  5. A mystery! Hope that it is solved. I hate not knowing things.

    So, my friend, is this your main blog? I have been to three and this seems the most logical place to leave a message.

    Thank you for popping by and for leaving a comment. It reminds me that you are out here traveling about, writing book reviews, and finding mysteries. Otherwise, it's a sometimes thing of finding you at Donna's Photo Challenge. Fun party that one.

Welcome to my photography blog, where I share the world as seen through my lens. All commenter's will receive a visit back from me but no longer individual replies unless you have a question, which I will respond to here. Your praise and kind words are always appreciated but to keep saying thankyou to you all individually, in an original way is not easy. So I am saying it here instead, a massive thankyou from my heart for all the wonderful support, your comments are a great encouragement to me.
