It is a great image, Bojan! Congratulations on your SF! Do you have any idea what he had in his hands? #11612172

Thanks Ed and Harvey.
Ed - it was a shovel. This sculpture was built in memory of the "Youth work actions" which took place after the WW2. Those were organized voluntary labor activities of young people in the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. One of those actions was building the "Brotherhood and Unity" highway that is passing near Otocec where this photo was taken. #11612188

Thank you, Bojan. History is where you find it - all to often we don't see what we are looking at. #11612227

Bojan Bencic level-classic June 20, 2017

You are welcome, Ed. Lots of history in that place. The castle (a hotel now) in the back is 13th century. #11612270

Thank, Bojan. #11612371
