In one of the temples, scaffolding has been erected, I think for a festival rather than for running repairs.
Instead of steel scaffolding, you see bamboo scaffolding used throughout HK and China. Bamboo is light, strong and abundant. It is lashed together with rubber. Still, I would be nervous climbing it...
I noticed this scaffolding while at a graduation ceremony at Glasgow University during the summer. I thought it was an interesting collection of shapes. Taken on 29 June 2010. Oh - and our son got an MA.
The zoom lens allows us to get right close, but doesn't show how far down this fellow is. He's about 7 or 8 stories above the street.... Seen while out and about in Calgary
Mum and Dad are having the roof of their house redone - it's very weird seeing the place covered in scaffolding, but I couldn't resist the opportunity of taking some shots for PAD...

Installation of new stained glass at the west end of the nave, Bidford on Avon church, August 2005.
The new glass was commissioned from Norgrove Studios to commemorate a former parishoner, Fred Spiers.
Stained glass artist Clare Johnson (Clare Barclay since May 2008) designed and executed the window on an abstract intepretation of the themes of Baptism, Confirmation and Afterlife using symbolic colours to suggest the spiritual journey of the soul.
The window is set high at clerestorey level, thus a more pictoral approach (initially favoured by the client) would have been difficult to read. The bold use of colour in Clares design however creates a strong impression at any distance and adds considerable warmth to the west end (used as the baptistry, the starting point for the window's theme).
First a scaffolding tower was erected and the former plain glazing (damaged and patched with previous repairs) removed, each light extracted as a complete piece in it's cast iron casement and preserved (they were extremely heavy!)
Installation of the new stained glass panels was then a fairly swift process. The new lights consisted of two panels each, with the join is cleverly disguised in the leadwork (as are the supporting metal bars which are custom shaped to blend in)

Bamboo scaffolding covers this building on one of the main streets of Calcutta. Luckily in the UK we have Health & Safety standards to help prevent workers deaths which were particularly prevalent on building sites.
A few random shots from a cold and windy walk around Poole Quay.
Anyone else getting really fed up of the weather, yet another named storm on it's way tomorrow! My TV aerial is not working after yesterday's storm.

It was common to see scaffolding made of wood in Reykjavik, which is odd because Iceland isn't known for people particularly forest-heavy.

One of the rings of Temenos, a new piece of public art at Middlehaven, Middlesbrough, by Anish Kapoor. This is still under construction - you can see men attaching the cables. There's a camera on top of the scaffolding - is it recording the construction over time?
One of the things I remember from my visit to Hong Kong as a child was the use of bamboo scaffolding everywhere - to incredible heights. Here are two workers erecting scaffolding on the side of an apartment. The city seems in a constant state of renewal - almost like nothing is repaired, they just tear it down and start anew...
