This is my entry for the - BRAND STORY contest sponsored by @ntopaz.

I write this post and smile, it’s true, it was fun to see the theme of today's contest - Brand.

I named my post - Prophet - Hot Dog.

The girl, on the left hand, in the sculptural composition, holds in her hand something, I think it was a bouquet of flowers, which, over time, became like a Hot Dog.

I had two reasons for this series of photographs to get such a name, namely, this name begins with the word - the Prophet.

Both reasons, like a time machine, bring us back to the past.
The first leap in time, he is short. Three days ago, I took this photograph in the territory of an old, children's, clinical hospital. This is a very old sculptural composition.

I was amused to see that the object that the girl holds in her hand looks like a sausage in a bun, a kind of Hot Dog.

I took these pictures, but, I did not know. that today, I will need to remember them. A little prophecy.

Now, the second reason for this name.

To do this, we will make a leap in time, at the hour when the sculptor was working on this composition.

This was the time when the government of the Soviet Union protected citizens from everything that could come from Western countries - the bastion of capitalism.

At a time when, for exchanging dollars, or selling jeans, other imported items, you could go to jail, or you could be sentenced to death - execution.

Hot Dog, it was a forbidden fruit, like many other things that could distract the minds of Soviet people.

I can safely say that this cute sculptural composition is a funny prophecy about the fall of the Iron Curtain and the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Hot Dog, won this war.

My brand for today is Hot Dog.

I thought that after a hotdog, the children would want to drink, and placed, near the feet of the children, a bottle of the drink that was forbidden at that time - Fanta, I cut it out from another photograph of mine. But, it will be a completely different story.
