These benches are for the birds

It’s abstract. But is it art?
There is no abstract art. You must always start with something.
Afterward you can remove all reality.
– Pablo Picasso

I used the Photoscape program and then edited the image with the Lunapic editor (https://www298.lunapic.com/editor/ ) which has an option to render the photo you upload in the style of a particular artist. I don’t think Picasso is really all that good and typical but this possibly because he had such different styles but I stuck with it anyway because it is his quote. Then I went back to Photoscape and used an artistic effect, swirl in both cases (the effect is different because the lilies were already in a collage when I started out) and tweaked the colour a bit in the second.
Somebody stop me I could play around like this for hours and hours!

Pedestrian ways
A few days ago I went to town to do some shopping. At first, there is the walkway from the parking garage to the pedestrian shopping street.
Look to the south.

And up the stairs.
Now for spending some money.
All done.
And now home!

Where there are signs, there used to be a fire
Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge asked for signs of any kind. I decided on fiery signs – fire insurance signs and fire museum signs.
