La Pierre aux Fées in St-Micaud (Saône-et-Loire) fell over in late C19 but it was re-erected in 1911. It is 6.35m tall and has a serpentiform motif on one face. This card by Gurret early 1910s. #StandingStoneSunday.

A dépanneur in Rigaud, Quebec. One of the few phone booths I've encountered that is the primary lighting source of its surrounding area. (Mamiya 7ii, 43mm f4.5, Kodak Tri X)

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

Restoration of this 16C Italian painting ‘Woman at a Window’ revealed that the original, much more provocative, woman (at R) had been overpainted ~ compare the eyes, mouth, hair colour & bust ~ to conform to polite Victorian tastes (at L)
