Imprisoned Octopus, for DerangedSnowman contest
I submit this for DerangedSnowman Contest by @carlgnash -- dont skip it momentarily, the snow is not necessarily required to take part in this splendid fun contest! oh, and did I forget to mention a great prize pool of 275 steem and 3500 CCC?.. Check all the rules at the link above; just mind: deranged, weird, curious and otherwise unusual snow people accepted as valid entries. Contest will run through December with winners announced in January.
so.... an Imprisoned Octopus!
Location: Park Pobedi, St.Petersburg, Russia.
Materials used: pure white snow, and nothing but snow (well, except of the hands, as well). So, its quite an eco-friendly octopus!
Why an octopus, one may ask? Well... I am fond of sea creatures since my teenage years (too much reading books about coral reefs is to blame!), and my 10 y.o. babygirl is extremely fond of octopuses, it is one of her favourite creatures. We always stop by, whenever we see some at the shop, and I obtain sea food from time to time, and sometimes just fish in small quantaties, just for she could touch and hold it a bit in her hands. Weird? Well, maybe. Humans are weird creatures...
We had an evening walk to the local Auchan mall to have some pizza, and on the way back home, we felt a bit inspired by the fish section, so this turned out into spontaneous snow fun.
Luckily, I had the camera with me, on the next day I returned to shoot it again in the daylight, but it was already ruined... Snowmans' life is too short, as the lemmings say...

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
yes, the fence have brought that idea, and night + light/shadows resulted in this 'no escape' impression. but looking from his back... theres a lot of the room left to run xD
thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it. I cant promise I always will have snow for your eyes... but sometimes, I do have it :P
For us here, not having snow, it seems fascinating. Living with it day in and day out may be not so. Keep it coming.
True. Sometimes its too much snow.
Yes, I can imagine that would be the case, and the cold would probably get tiresome I suppose. Have you lived in an area that get's winter snow all your life?
I am so jealous I want to w ter to but with snow and we don’t have that and I know I am allowed something else BUT I WANT SNOW AHHAHAHHA
Britta, we have all of December in our hands, for doing this job. probably, THERE WILL BE SOME SNOW?!!!!!! at some point... in December...
I will pray😉
Thats what he gets for trying to take over the world. Kthulu gets put back in prison.

Wonderful, zany response to the challenge & heartwarming to know you and your daughter collaborated on it.
May you both stay warm, curious & silly 😜
a good wishes. thank you!
I wish the same for myself 🤗
конкурс есть...а снег закончился. Я знаю, весь снег пошёл на осьминога)))
Таки вы прям снежные скульпторы! Хорошая заявка на победу))
хыыыы! преотличный коммент ))))
эта, если ты не горишь принципиальностью, то я повторюсь: не обязательно из снега!!!! устроитель как раз ради демократичности, говорит что готов принять всё!! глину, пластилин, всё что угодно. хоть рисовые колобки. лишь бы были deranged и постраннее, и потрешовее!
мож из дерева вырежу и в белое покрашу))
проще из пенопласта?..
но главное то, конечно, что именно ты вырежешь...
может что и придумаю))
This is so cool ! Love your SnowOctopussy, makes me want to set her free ! 😄
I knew we shared the same liking for snails, now we can add the octopussy as well 😊
Now before you ask, here they are !
oh, yes! octopussies is my (and my babygirl) big obsession! :=)
nice to have such a friends here on steemit. TNKY!
