The tiny camera's tiny battery ran out so I went back to my reading. The note with the sculpture says "This bronze and copper sculpture contrasts a series of small human forms with the architectural weight of on oversize staircase. The artwork has a philosophical aspect by reflecting on the effect of reading on the spirit - 'the more I read the smaller I feel'." Crikey, I dunno about you but if reading made me feel like that I'd stop.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
Love this composition.The canoes are lovely, and their colours a joy. But the stillness of the pier and its reflection MAKE this image.
ReplyDeleteKeep groooooovin' ... !
ReplyDeleteI agree - fantastic composition! feels like a relaxing day.
ReplyDeleteUh, I don't know if I would be comfortable in a pink boat:):)
ReplyDeleteEmile, it is funny that you should say that. The title of this post was in some ways a salute to Jessica Watson who sailed solo around the world when only 16 years old ... her yacht was pink and named Pink Lady.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you are having a relaxing time. This view would calm anyone.
ReplyDeleteThis is my new year's resolution! (not really a resolution - but I'm going with it)
ReplyDeleteFor 4 years now I've been dreaming of owning a canoe/surfski and taking myself off a'paddlin'.
(vince would like a jet-ski - so we can go together - not quite sure how that is going to work).
I've never seen pink ones before.
Wait til I show Vince!
I really love this shot :) actually your whole journey south was great to see.
