Fata morgana (Mirage)

Three dromedaries walk leisurely on the railway bridge over the Ring canal. They move like three dark silouettes along the horizon to the east. The dromedaries walk in the desolate stone desert of the urban landscape. Are they a mirage or are they real? 

This  artpiece "Fata Morgana" in Amsterdam is made by Iris Le Rutte.

  6. It's strange to see them in Amsterdam. It's either a mirage or you have some lost camels roaming the city. :)

  7. Now that's cool to put the camels up so that they look realistic. I'm sure many people take a second look.
