Zen-Bridge or Bridge-Zen?
Good morning, fellow travelers and lovers of the Black and White Photography.
I am sure you have already heard, by my posts here or by other travelers, about the beautiful old stone bridge called The Devil's Bridge in Southern Bulgaria, on Arda river, close to the town of Ardino (yes, named after the same river).
Today, though, I am sharing some Zen stone pyramids that people like to build there. Personally, I don't know where that trend came from but I admit there is some special invisible energy about those sympatric tiny piles...
You probably know by now how much I love Black & White or sometimes referred as Monochromatic photography. I have always believed that while Color Photography shows the external part of our world, Black and White Photography shows the soul, the inner hidden side of everything. Please consider the first photo of this post as my entry today to the established #monomad daily contest by the monochromes account and community and supported by the qurator account, thank you everyone for your hard and continuous efforts to build and grow this great community!

Apparently, after people have forgotten how to build such bridges, they want to build at least something out of stones :)

People used to create cairns to mark trails. When I was a kid I used to follow routes from cairn to cairn. Unfortunately, many people knock them over and put up misdirecting rock piles.
But I guess we have GPS ... which is more reliable.
The art of rock stacking was super popular a decade back. There was a little bit of kick back because some people were stacking rocks is relatively pristine areas and trampling down the under growth in the process; so it fell out of favor. It is still fun to find well stacked rocks.
Directional stacks, I totally get that. At popular places, full of tourists... Must be some fashion trend or just doing what other people do...
Thanks for your input!

The bridge is a stunning structure, and the pyramids add a touch of tranquility and mystery to the scene.
I'm not sure where the trend of building Zen stone pyramids came from either, but I agree that there is something special about them. They seem to capture the essence of balance and harmony, and they're a reminder that even the simplest things can be beautiful.
It's Bridge Zen.
