The three cygnets just swam across the front of the hide and it looked as if the third one looked as if it was trying to catch up!

In this sculpture, painting's basic building block, the brushstroke, has been playfully transformed into an oversized, three-dimensional form. Made from aluminum, three vertical "strokes" of pure color are frozen in space and rise to a height of more than ten feet. One edge of the yellow brushstroke cuts through the dominant stroke of black and blue; the yellow also curves into a diminutive stroke of red paint.
Each brushstroke is a fully realized three-dimensional form that, somewhat implausibly, allows the viewer to experience a stroke of paint from different vantage points. The sculpture humorously reminds us that paint is literally three-dimensional.
Roy Lichtenstein first explored brushstrokes as a subject in a series of paintings initiated in 1965. As with many of his works, he used a comic book source--a panel of an artist at work from Strange Suspense Stories --as the basis for his brushstrokes. The subject became one of the artist's most recognizable images and he would return regularly to the brushstroke motif for more than thirty years. In the early 1980s, Lichtenstein began creating sculptural brushstrokes.

Three Larson Scanners, Extendable version.
I had a spare, worse-for-wear Larson Scanner laying around, so I decided to tie a THIRD Scanner to the end of the chain to make sure that they would still work.
For the Blue and Brown pairs, solid color wires are outputs, color-white wires are inputs. Note how the solid blue of the left unit is tied to the brown-white of the right unit, and the solid brown of the right unit is tied to the blue-white of the left unit.
Note also how the Blue/Blue-White pair on the right-hand unit and the Brown/Brown-White pairs on the left-hand are twisted to each other. This tells the board that those are the ends of the line.
