One of the quick stop-overs on our descent back home. It was getting dark and I had no strength left in me to fight the chilly breeze and set-up the tripod. Hence, the shake in the hand-held shot.
There's a sculpture in the atrium of the building where I work that looks pretty neat. It's especially interesting in the morning when the sunlight coming in the windows hits it. I'd been meaning to go in on a weekend and take some photos as the atrium is fairly busy during the week (and I need to get to work).
I ended up taking photos in the parking deck, the atrium, the garden, the bridge to the tower, the stairwell, the network closet/machine room and the quadrangle in front of the building. A few shots of a sculpture turned into a 300 shot adventure all over the building with about 120 being suitable to put up on flickr.

This is the sculpture in question. It's a large version of "Flow" from Bathsheba Grossman
The river: Like Siddhartha, we are always in the flow of change and impermanence, always wanting to cross the river, always searching.
This painting will be in my upcoming show in Northcote Victoria. Check my website at www.jennierosenbaum.com for details
Om de boomgaarden en wijngaarden rond Merano van water te voorzien, zijn er al eeuwen geleden in de omgeving kanaaltjes aangelegd. Deze belletjes zijn een onderdeel van dit irrigatiesysteem. Zolang er water stroomt, klinkt de bel, maar als ergens onderweg het water stagneert, verstomt de bel en weet de eigenaar van dat stuk van het kanaaltje dat hij er iets aan moet doen. De paden langs de kanalen ('Waalwege') zijn ideaal voor wandelingen.
To irrigate the orchards and vineyards around Merano, a system of water courses has been developed that goes back centuries. These bells are part of that system. As long as the water flows, the bell sounds. When there is an obstruction along the way, the bell falls silent and the owner of that part of the channel knows he should go and fix it. Nowadays the paths along the channels ('Waalwege') are great for walks.
