Re: [MC74 and Friends] theme for next week - ANACHRONISM




Dear Tuan & TNS,  your Anachronism theme photo entries are very interesting !!!!
 
Dear MC, BT, BL, Mr Kiu, Hien Lan, B Diep  & all Romantic PNEH friends:
Here are my photos entries for this week theme "Anachronism"....
 
the fist photo was taken @ the old mission of Alhambra in East Los Angeles area
Walking arount this mission, I had the feeling that this mission was inhabited by so many layers, so many ghosts
from many eras combined with the present surrounding areas,
@ the back door laid  the old graveyard decorated with "cold & scary" ancient curving iron forms...
  ( I always get the feel for the different kinds of architecture and the different eras while visiting old, ancient or
historical cities... Don't you? ) 
 
the second photo was @ the renaissance fair in Los Angeles area where I took my kids to sample the foods,
watching old Shakespeare plays & having fun,
it's pretty interesting to listen to people talking with the old English accent all around us...
you could click here to find out about the fair:
 
Enjoy the rest of the week,
Cheers from Liem

  1. Hello Khanh Liem

    2 very lively pictures that defined the theme Anachronism quite neatly

    The old mission of Alhambra, a historical site oddly out of place,
    in a new residential area, shrouded in mystery behind closed doors,
    yet appealingly charming, as the sanctuary of hope, of years past

    A distracting street scene, a quantum leap into the past,
    a colorful, casual, playful stroll in the memory lane
    that evoked the Shakespeare spirit, the dramatic flair in modern time
