The shot above was of wedding transportation that I spotted and the shot below was taken another time outside of the NC Museum of History. The handsome statues are historical figures.

Dear Carver, the sculptures are wonderful,so creative idea!I would love to visit this museum someday!
Léia
Beautiful shots, love the b/w in the first one.
I am back after a long hiatus :)
Cheers!
H is for...
Lovely shots. I really thought that the horse & cart were for real !
Wow, I thought the horse and cart were real too.
The museum is so open and inviting -- no dusty old remnants like so many historical museums I've seen. I'd want to visit if I were there.
We as a nation have such little respect for learning from history; it frustrates me...
ROG, ABC Wednesday team
I haven't visited a single museum last year and I promised to visit at least one this year.
Welcome to Carver!
Very beautiful photos.
I send greetings.
Lucia
did you say the horse wasn't real? I thought you were talking about the figures in the 2nd image.
I love history, but really it is no longer taught in many grades. Social Studies which neither lends toward history or geography so both those subjects lack substance in Soc. Studies. sad state of affairs for education...:(
Museums about History are always interesting. The artefacts and also the ordinary household articles can show us how people used to live. Thanks for sharing.
Wil, ABCW Team.
Oh, I would love to take some super close-ups of the statue faces.
How beautiful.
Perfect choice for the letter H.
Lots going on outside the museum!
Thanks to everyone for visiting. The first shot of the mule and carriage were real. They had a wedding party in traditional robes of their native country and they just happened to be outside of the museum. The second shot is of the statues.
Great choice for H, - sad to see History so neglected, - it has many lessons to teach us.
thank you for visiting me and thanks for the explanation about your wonderful photos.
Neat post for H and wonderful photography ^_^
Love Love Love these 2 photos! Would love to see them myself some day.

A very interesting looking building.
oh c'est trop bien ces statues debout...
Both are classic shots!
I too mistook the horse carriage for real one from recent days.
great ..like the first pic
The juxtaposition of the horse and cart against the modern face of the building is particularly effective. Fabulous job!
The monochrome image does go well with the theme of history.
How fortunate you were to happen on the wedding party. The statues are a great way to intrigue, I love museums, large or small.
Great ideas for H! Love the photo of the carriage!
Oh very handsome figure and I love the horse and cart (especially in monochrome)!
Carver, fabulous museum, even from the outside! Loved these. Amy

Wonderful captures .
History Happens Here-great pictures.

History and a horse is a perfect combo!
Haghpat Monastery, Armenia
Catching up with letter H entries.
Rose, ABC Wednesday Team
Great choice for letter H, Carver. I was at your other blog and left a comment. Thanks for visiting my ABC Wednesday entry! Have a great weekend.
