Picture Day

Today's pictures, please note the "s", are from the Fur Rondy Snow Sculpture competition.

This pic is easily my favorite of the lot. The others? Eh. Not so much. Scroll down to see why.

Um. I think this is supposed to be a troll or something. An angry troll. See the fist? And the psychotic grin? Angry snow trolls make me long for fifty degree weather.

Okay. We're in Alaska and someone decided to do a sculpture of a frog on a lilly pad. I think someone must be homesick for the bayou. It doesn't help any that the eyes on this snow frog totally follow you around the room. Creepy!

Snow fish leaping into the air. I suppose this is relevant to our locality, but this sculpture is just dead boring. I mean, come on. Angry Snow Troll and Creepy Snow Frog are more interesting than this. Bleh.

I have absolutely no fucking idea what this thing is supposed to be. Mystery Snow Sculpture is made of fail.

Again, I have no idea what the hell this thing is supposed to be. It looks kind of Lovecraftian, doesn't it? Are those supposed to be brains and tentacles or something else? Lovecraftian Snow Sculpture is made of fail. Epic fail.

Okay. Are these supposed to be bears or apes? I can't tell. And, also, why does looking at this picture make me think that they are about to have sex. Dirty, dirty snow sex. *shudders*

Snow Baby Sculpture is Giant. Snow Baby Sculpture is Creepy. How'd you like to see that crawling down the hall toward you on a dark night?
And there you have it. I swear, I don't know what was going through those artists minds when they were making these sculptures, but I suspect a lot of them spent waaayyy too much time alone this winter.
Still alive and avoiding creepy snow sculptures! - G.
