Weekly Photo Challenge: Transmogrify
Scrap metal, turned giant fish, turned pigeon perch.
This fish is part of a sculpture called Fisherman’s Dream along The Enchanted Highway in North Dakota.
The Enchanted Highway: where one retired school teacher started taking scrap metal, turning it into sculptures and planting them along a country highway in an effort to turn tourists off the expressway and help keep small towns on the map and transmogrified the landscape in the process!
Gorgeous 😀 … did it work?
Well, we stopped and bought gas in a town we wouldn’t have otherwise gone through and saw that there is now an enchanted hotel in the town at the end of it so I think it must be bringing some people in.
That sounds amazing! I’d the entire thing is like thing one example than it must make for one lovely drive 🙂
It’s pretty fun, it’s all farm land and then all of a sudden you see a ginormous deer or tin family or something peeking over the next hill!
Is that even a word??
