Artist's Description
As I'm always fascinated by the different ways in which people choose to adorn and decorate their balconies, I was delighted to discover this one in Zurich's Old Town. A public art exhibit known as 'Cow Parade' has been featured in many cities around the globe and most of us will, at one time or another, have come across one of these fibreglass cow sculptures individually decorated by artists local to the area. The concept actually originated in Zurich, Switzerland in 1998 and has since spurred similar projects worldwide. I wondered how long this one had been here, proudly displaying its home town on its side and watching the citizens of Zurich go about their business from its vantage point high above. It's not every day you see a cow on a balcony.
About Carol Japp
I'm a travel photographer and photo artist. I like to explore every nook and cranny of anywhere I visit and I'm always looking out for something unusual or unique, weird and wonderful, interesting and intriguing. For me, half the challenge is in the initial taking of the photo, the looking for something that catches my attention, getting that perfect composition, but the other half is in the processing, the tweaking and twisting and the addition of a little imagination to see how much detail I can bring to the surface and hopefully let the viewer see the same as I did when I took the shot. My images have been shot here, there and everywhere, mainly in the historic cities of Europe and with the occasional one taken in my own surroundings...
