Caption This...

* Your Caption Here...*

Out walking the other evening in Bossy, Switzerland, and ran across this. I have an idea for a caption for this photo, but I thought I'd throw it out to all of you first. How would you caption it?

Caption This...

* Your caption here... *

I didn't have anything "caption worthy" last week, but this week, I do. This photo was taken in the Plainpalais neighborhood of Geneva. You provide the caption.

The winner of the previous effort at captioning is Tennis Jazz of BC Capital (Victoria) Daily Photo. The runner up is Larry of Eeyore's Ramblin's. Thanks for contributing, folks!

Caption This...

"This is hardly what I had in mind when I asked for a more modern pulpit."

I think Petrea, over at Pasadena Daily Photo, uses photos like this for her Zen Monday feature. I'm posting this a little late, but thought I'd throw out a similar challenge to my readers. So, how would you caption this photo?

Updated: 1 February 2010. The winner of the captioning contest is an old friend from high school, Laura Sumison. See her caption above. The runner-up was my friend, Hilary Muzingo, who posted her contribution on Facebook.  Her caption was "I've heard of 'Stairway to Heaven', but this??"
