Interrupting, for a day, my Clock Face Country Park series, tonight, while walking Ted in Daisyfields, Sutton Manor, St Helens, Merseyside, the sunset was quite spectacular. These 4 shots were some of those that I hope portray that sunset.
Taken at the DREAM installation in Sutton Manor, St Helens, whilst hoping that we might see aurora!

The Dream Country Park 281123
A walk with Ted, our dog, on a frosty late November morning, around the Dream Country Park in St Helens, Merseyside. The park is built on reclaimed land previously used by the Sutton Manor colliery. The construction of the 66ft high Dream statue was won by the town – one of four public arts projects awarded nationally by a Channel Four television programme, ‘The Big Art Project’, together with The Art Fund and Arts Council England.. The sculptor/designer was Jaume Plensa. The walk was also, probably, my last chance to look across to the cooling towers of the Fidlers Ferry former power station: four of them are due to be demolished on December 3rd.
