Noses...( please see large)

Thanks

I think Pinokio is nearly every ones childhood funny, loved story.

 

Thanks for your memories..... ( if you have any of this one while viewing ...)

Pinokio has been a prominent figure of my childhood too but don't think I have any specific memories other than I believed for a while that my nose would grow bigger if i lied :) and still make the connection with people who do come up with white lies and they get labeled as "your nose is growing"....

very nice capture, congrats and best regards.

Pnina, I too loved to read "The Adventures of Pinocchio " in my childhood. Here so many Pinocchio s made me smile. I remembered those innocent happy days of mine.

Cute capture! That guy better not tell any more lies!

Ahalan Pnina,

 

Very charming image - and the man in the background also has some Pinocchioesque qualities.

 

At first I was thinking of Nehalat Binyamina but the background on the left doesn't quite fit...

 

I am in Israel at present and will stay until the 28.06. Perhaps I will be able to take some more pictures here.

 

All the best

 

Peter

B.C , and Amal ,thanks for you memories, it made me smile.I loved reading books as a child ( also nowadays ) Pinokio (Pinocchio as it is written really) is a great memory of my childhood preferred books.;-)) and I love the wooden doll....

 

Tim, I smile reading your comments.....

 

Peter, his "birthday" was in 1883 in Italy, so that amount of him can be found I think only there....;-))

 

If you are in Israel and you are interested, call me ( 050-5658812) Thanks for your visit and comment.

illusions...reflections...memories...

In Italy we have a lot of so made stalls, but they are always very pleasant!...Ciaoamu!

Nice and funny image, i like this Pinokio wood dools with this man behind, he seem to reminder that a lil bit of Pinokio is in everyone ... well done Pnina!

To all of you.

 

Fabrizio, "he seem to reminder that a lil bit of Pinokio is in everyone ... "

Great observation... ;-))

Yes very funny, but serious as well, without that man the photo would have been very ordinary, but with that simple introduction of a human face, it gain so much depth. lol

A child's wonderland, Pnina. I have such fond memories of hearing and then reading this story over and over. I like the large crowd of them in various positions, waiting to perform. The smiling man mirrors my own expression.

Much loved memories.

Thanks you all, it is wonderful that we have some mutual memories of loved childhood stories. Pinokio is calssic.. I think that the man fits here.....

I always found the story of Pinocchio a bit creepy and unsettling. To this day I remain less than fond of marionettes. I do nonetheless like this photo. The dimensions of the Pinocchio next to the man's reflection tends to put them both into the same reality. I also like the strong diagonal of the puppets rising upward in the frame from left to right.

And I have a very big nose ;) does that tell you anything dear PN ina

 

with love Els

Uh those noses! I exclaimed even before I read your title. That famous doll plays a new trick (or maybe just repeats an old one) in your neat picture. We also have one of them at home and I remember my son was quite upset when he got it as a present, the grandparents explained in vane that this is the real thing from the homeland of Pinocchio...

Regards, Tibi

Gord, I see Pinocchio as a moral story that talks about honesty in an unusual way. I see it as a nice translation of the story to the doll...

 

Elsi, I think you are beautiful ! Your soul is wide and I love you ;-)).

 

Tibi, my 3 years old grandchild liked the doll, even though I know he is still too young for the story.....The juxtaposition of the man's nose and the dolls he is selling... I just could not resisit....;-))

I like how the man's rather plastic smile mirrors the vacant eyes of all those Pinocchios. Your "out and about" pictures are great!

Charming shot. I think that there is a little Pinocchio in every person wanting to become something else.

Perfect title for this funny scene, Pnina. Excellent composition, colors, details and contrast. Very good shot! Congrats!

Jeff, I'm glad to read you and see you here again, always enjoy the way your express your point of view.

 

,Adan, glad to see you as well, you were ascent lately and I hope all is well with you ?

 

David, thanks again, for all your nice comments.

Dear PN ina, I was this weekend in Amsterdam, and I saw Pinockio in a window, and how funny the brains sometimes work, I had to make a picture of it, because of you, so here it is (not in the no words), (and I also did put a comment on Sky blue his picture, I stole your face out of Andrea's folder)

 

I love you too special woman, Els

You are wonderful! Please go to Sky's folder, I wrote you there, and notify Ken , he is needed.... Both of us really should meet in the future. Hugs my dear!
