Photo of the Day (8/01/07)

by Jamie Rhein on Aug 1st 2007 at 8:32AM

This photo "watching the world" by benny jewell reminds me of what travel feels like sometimes--still and whirling. Right now I'm traveling out of my element and routine between Seattle, Washington and Philipsburg, Montana. In the midst of visiting friends, I'm searching out places with WiFi, making sure my kids are entertained and taking in new sites. It's a glorious time, but, like this photo, can make me feel relaxed and dizzy at the same time.

I'm curious about the image right above the person's feet. Is it a statue? Is the green caused by trees? Turkey is mentioned on the tag list. Where in Turkey is this? This photo was recently posted on July 24 and I wonder what benny jewell is shooting now.

The image above the feet looks like the rope of the hammock he's swinging in attatched to the tree.

I think you're right, but it looks like some statue of little girl with her hand out.
