Dominoes?


Early on a Sunday morning I spied these 7 delivery bikes which had suffered the tumbling effect of dominoes.

Zoom-zoom!

  5. Great title. The Sushi Shop would not have been happy. Nothing another cup of saki wouldn't fix.

  12. Richard -- Merci... C'est vrai

    Brittany -- I did wonder just how this little accident happened

    jb -- Hummmm....

    Suzi -- I think that the shushi shop will be quite unhappy with this scene... I did not linger after my photo lest I be accused!

    Joe -- A bit early for saki that morning but I do not think that there was any damage more than a few scratches

    Dianne -- My first thought was... avalanche!

    Andi -- Merci, mon amie!

    Andy -- It does the same to me - hah!

    Tena -- Yes, I think that they will have to start at the end and work toward the middle

    AA -- No, but almost!!

    Marie -- To me, it seemed more like a b&w crime scene - haha!

    Virginia -- In Paris, I burn the candle at both ends (but probably not 3am)

    Belgium -- Merci, mon amie - bon weekend!

  13. The city equivalent of cow-tipping? Wonder if some kids came along the night before and just couldn't resist playing dominoes with these scooters.

  14. Alexa -- You are too funny! However, you may be right... It would be very tempting to just give a little push or bump...

    JM -- Merci, José!

  15. Lots of Black and white images in blogland today. This is great but I would be tempted to give them a push and watch them fall like dominoes.

  18. O, dear, looks like the bikes in Amsterdam. Big city problems.

  19. Ooops!

    I was thinking they were pizza bikes, another Dominoes reference. ;)

  20. Beautifully captured, reminds me of the cluttered streets of Varanasi in India!!
    Have a lovely Sunday :)

  21. Perfect title and I love the b&w version. Yes I do remember Quick Draw McGraw, it used to be one of my favorites.

  22. I can picture a couple of drunk young French guys and one strong kick a few hours earlier. Peut-être? :)

  23. Picturit -- Yes, and that's exactly what might have happened... no resistance to some temptation.

    Starman -- Yes, I thought that too!

    Amanda -- I did not hang around to find out! eeek

    Birgman -- I think that all but the last two did already!

    biebkriebels -- I do think that the bikes are less of a hazard than the abundance of cars

    Halcyon -- Verrrrry good, my friend!

    Arti -- Well, now, that is another place I must see

    Randy -- Knowing your recent birthday, I thought that you might have known QDMcG -- The b&w here just seemed to go with the scene.

    James -- Oh yes... I can visualize just the scene!

  24. Definitely the work of le prankster extraordinaire!!!

    I've taken many shots of rows of Vespers and such, even one pink one! But never a row of tipsy bikes!!!
