Weekly Photo Challenge: Atop
Atop
I’ve always had trouble watching artists take daring risks, such as this tightrope walker crossing St. Denis Street during Montreal’s Cirque Festival in 2016. Usually I cover my eyes and ask my husband to tell me when it’s over!
But he was having so much fun that I couldn’t not watch! Even though there was nothing between him and the hard street below.
See those scars?
One slicing across Mother Earth’s forehead just above the eyebrows, the other across her cheeks.
Another mine blasted open, another drill driven deep.
