WPC: Simple twists of May 2017

In a simple twist of fate, the WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge is coming to an end. The last theme will be posted this Wednesday.

In another, I felt an emptiness inside to which I just could not relate. Not only have I been an (almost) weekly participant for the last three years and will miss this simple act of obedience (which I sorely lack in my life, obviously), but I have also just lost my front tooth to chicken. (It was wobbly for a while so it was not painful.)

I don’t know how old you are and how good your gums are but if it hasn’t happened yet, praise the whatever deity tickles your fancy and buy it a round, while I carve something provisional out of turnip or print it out on my 3D printer (nah) until I reach Slovenia and have it fixed. One long month!

In the photos, a collection of twists and turns of proverbial fortune, all taken last May. After my last two WPC posts – “Unlikely” with one day in May and “Place in the World” with one week – this is the third post with solely photos from May 2017 for my 2017 Calendar. You can find the rest of the months here.

Let’s see what all can get twisted. In some cases it’s more literal, such as here. A school bus that walks in Rome.

Some vegetables are more twisted than others.

A twisted Porto Ercole harbour scene.

This scene looks like a twister was here.

Man makes it straight, nature makes it twisted.

Man can make it twisted too, or better, rounded. What are those figures up to? (San Bruzio monastery ruins)

Why are these naked children or angels carrying so much?

A twisted tailed women fountain in Tuscania.

She doesn’t seem all that happy.

This one is more relaxed, even though her spine is twisted.

May: Another Tuscania twisted statue. Is it an egret?

Bestia is a twisted bundle of joy.

Tongue and tail twister.

I might consufe “rounded” and “twisted”. Tuscania.

To Orvieto now. St Patrick’s Well first on a photo…

…and then for real. A double helix staircase leads down and up.

The small well next to the big well: Twist his nose and drink.

The view of Orvieto Scalo from the well: One track twists to allow for the trains to stop, while the fast trains can rush by on the other.

On the last day of last May: It’s twisted how yellow it was already! This year is completely different, nice and green.

May: A proper bowl twister: amore making carbonara.

And here is a song that rolled out by itself considering the circumstances. I’ve always loved how she turns it midway into a Bob bop. 😀
