St Dunstan in the East possesses one of London's most distinctive steeples, a rare type of spire that appears almost to 'float', being carried aloft by four large flying buttresses. This was all the invention of Christopher Wren while rebuilding the City churches after the Great Fire of 1666, though it does echo to some degree the lost medieval steeple of St Mary le Bow (a less slender structure more akin to St Giles in Edinburgh, destroyed in the Great Fire). It makes a handsome landmark in an area of the City that needs one.
Unlike most of his city churches, here Wren patched up the ruins of the medieval building and added his impressive tower and spire in Gothic style accordingly. The body of the church however did not age well and was wholly rebuilt to the designs of David Laing in 1817-21, resulting in Wren's steeple being attached to an attractive Gothic revival church with a plaster vaulted ceiling within.
The interior was completely lost to wartime bombing in 1941, leaving only the outer walls and Wren's fine tower and spire. It was decided not to rebuild St Dunstan's and ultimately it reopened as an attractive memorial garden, retaining most of the shell of the building (the east wall has been largely dismantled). It is now alive with plants and creepers that largely conceal parts of the structure, though the resulting mixture of dense foliage and empty Gothic window traceries is an attractively picturesque sight.
St Dunstan's gardens are normally open during the day and a much needed haven of peace within the bustle of the City.

A float in a procession in Arbroath on an unspecified date. Were these real animals on the float? Or were they animals at all?
Baby float has a seat and back rest for safe and sturdy fun in the pool. Also has three balls with bells in a water-tight tube to play with (attached to the float).

Parade Theme 2015: l’Enfant Terrible
One of the festival floats for a festival here in Fuchu-city. The festival will be on all this week, but on the 4th teams from different neighborhoods will be racing through the streets carrying these huge umbrella looking things - each of which weighs about 50kg. Children race with smaller children's versions. They are super colourful. Each of the little flowers attached to it is hand-made from tissue paper, and takes about 10 minutes to make.

- Crime Stoppers had children locked in a cage as their float. You can’t see it in this pic, but there was actually a little kid steering the wheel of the van.
I am creating an art float with friends and neighbors for this year’s Mill Valley Memorial Day Parade.
Our float for this parade features the Bamboodu Theater, a mobile puppet stage I created for civic events and art shows. Our first show stars Lady Liberty and Mr. Trump. As music plays, a Mr. Trump’s recent tweets and alternative facts appear on a news ticker. Each time Trump says something wrong, Liberty hits him on his thick, bobbing head.
As we march, we will invite parade watchers to sing along the inspiring poem by Emma Lazarus about the Statue of Liberty (“Give me your tired, your poor …”). Through this interactive art experience, we hope to engage people of all ages to change the world through civic action.
I am building this float with a wonderful team at the Mill Valley Community Action Network (MVCAN), a local political group which I recently joined to resist the conservative takeover of our country.
I’m very grateful to all our friends and neighbors who are helping bring it to life: Danny Altman, Laura Boles, Jean Bolte, Phyllis Florin, David Glad, Peter Graumann, Edward Janne, Suz Lipman, Jean Marie Murphy and Mark Petrakis, to name but a few.
Our Bamboodu Float is coming along beautifully, and I can’t wait to show it off at the parade on Monday, May 29, 2017.
Join your neighbors to keep democracy alive!

1. Root Beer, Glass, Shaving Cream (Fake Ice Cream), Fruits, Mat
2. Out of all the fake food items to pick from, ice cream stood out to us. We wanted to add something commonly used with ice cream, like a root beer float.
3. We put shaving cream on top of the root beer and decorated around the glass to find a good composition to have the drink stand out. We used side lighting to have it be more dramatic.
