WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: BIG
When looking through my archives I found these two examples of big images for the Daily Post Challenge. The apple core was photographed on the grounds of one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s home, The Kentuck Knob.
The balloon of the larger than life marine, was a display item at our Fourth of July celebration located at Point State Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
I hope you agree these are some “BIG” images.
BIG APPLE CORE
THE MARINES
Semper Fidelis means “Always Faithful.”
US MARINE SLOGAN
Few Good Men: On 20 March 1779 in Boston, Capt. William Jones, USMC, advertised for “a few good men” to enlist in the Corps for naval duty. The term seemed ideally suited for Marines, mainly because of the implication that “a few” good men would be enough. This term has survived for over 200 years and has been synonymous with U.S. Marines ever since.

Not at all. I like to look at pictures rather than skim and like

I clicked on the apple photo and it says File cannot be Found.
I thought you might want to know. The soldier is – BIG – yup.

Thanks Isadora, I think I fixed it. Thanks for the heads up. I think I deleted it by mistake because I wanted it separate from the marines.

I was surprised when I can across it sitting in a field around the house.

It’s interesting. Here is a link to what I found. http://rthistonomics.blogspot.com/2012/05/greetings-believers-stan-lee-copyright.html
The Human being does not realize that he is the responsible of the “run out” of our resources so they consume and overuse the natural resources until their core.

Wonder who ate the apple? I would not want to meet THAT rodent or creature. Ha! That sure is big.

I like the Marine balloon, but that apple is just so whimsical – love it!

Love that core! What a great subject for a sculpture. Looks like it has been tossed aside as we do with them!

Magnificent shots. ” A few good men” does sounds inspiring although wouldn’t it be more amazing we we have lots of good men in general? The world needs more of those.

Now that is a big apple!
