Single Form, by Barbara Hepworth.

This sculpture stands in Battersea Park London, on the South shore of the lake, and is a smaller version of the one that stands at the United Nations in New York.

The first cast was made in 1963, and was displayed in an open air sculpture exhibition in Battersea Park.

In October that year, It was was shipped to America. It was donated to the Johns Hopkins University, and displayed in Washington D.C.

A second cast was also made in 1963, and was bought by the London County Council and installed at Battersea Park. (pictured here)

Hepworth doubled the size for a casting that would become the largest bronze artwork ever cast at Morris Singer's London foundry.

It was commissioned for the United Nations building, and was erected in New York in May 1964. This bigger version weighs 5.5 tonnes, and stands 6.4m high.

It has now stood at the United Nations for 60 years.

The last of this small series of black fences in winter. Thank you to everyone for your favs and comments; it has meant a lot.

I have always thought that a series should come together over time, many visits, blood, sweat and tears but this small series came together over one snowy Sunday. I'd been dying to get out to photograph this area this winter since it's the first time in years that we'd got any significant snow, but I had a lunch planned on this day with a friend I hadn't seen in a while. I must admit that I was secretly thrilled when she cancelled saying she was nervous about driving on the snowy roads. As soon as I heard, I headed out (in my city car, without snow tires) and spent a wonderful day shooting. What a thrill to see a small series come out of one lucky day.

mereka bilang aku pemilih dan kesepian

terlalu keras menjalani hidup

beribu nasehat dan petuah yang diberikan

berharap hidupku bahagia

aku baik baik saja

menikmati hidup yang aku punya

hidupku sangat sempurna

I’m single and very happy

mengejar mimpi mimpi indah

bebas lakukan yang aku suka

berteman dengan siapa saja

I’m single and very happy

mereka bilang sudah saatnya karena usia

untuk mencari sang kekasih hati

tapi kuyakin akan datang pasangan jiwaku

pada waktu dan cara yang indah

waktu terus berjalan tak bisa kuhentikan

kuinginkan yang terbaik untuk hidupku

Taken for this weeks (25-Nov-17) Smile on Saturday 'One Single Leaf' theme.

There are so many leaves here (late Spring in NZ) that I had to second another leaf to hang on the branch so that it would stand out!

Wishing you a happy Saturday, Sunday, and every other day too :-D

'The Single Beech also know as the lone, or lonely beech, is the highest tree in the Cotswolds also at 317m. There is a fine 360 degree view from here and you can really appreciate the open aspects of this hilltop landscape. The Memorial Wall surrounds the tree, with plaques in memory of those who have been particularly fond of Cleeve Common.

Cleeve Common is the largest common in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is also the highest point on the Cotswolds at 330m. The Common is a conservation area and Site of Special Scientific Interest for its geology, habitats and botany and it contains a wealth of archaeological interest, including three Scheduled Monuments. It is looked after by Cleeve Common Trust.
