The bronze figure was created in the 1990s by sculptor Steven Liguori. The statue was based on a photo of one of the last of the high scalers then alive -- Joe Kine.

 

A car with a donkey drives through a busy alley in Egypt.

On top of the car there are scales to weight lemons.

My eye was caught by the light falling on the bowls with backlight.

 

Sweet memories of a lovely holiday in Egypt. Nearly 20 years ago.

I decided to convert a picture of this amazingly colourful artwork into black and white. See below for details about the work:

 

Lothar Gotz has transformed the outside of Towner into a large-scale, geometric artwork. Gotz, a German artist who is based in the UK, was chosen from over 60 artists and designers through an open call for the Brewers Towner Commission - a painted commission to mark the building's tenth anniversary year. Drawing on the gallery's architecture, angles and unique exterior recesses, Gotz has produced his largest painting to date, a colourful new work that encompasses all three sides of the building.

 

Gotz's work - typically large scale paintings, drawings and installations that respond to existing architectural structures - has included commissions for Southbank Centre, London (2014), Pallant House Gallery, Chichester (2016) and Leeds Art Gallery (2017)

Taken from the Towner's description on the outside of the building

time scales in different scales

Tools (scales) I acquired years ago, and

used for measuring ft/lbs of torque. I used smaller scales for lesser rotational force measurement. I always considered them heavy duty and beautiful.

Another from New Brighton, this time with a person in the scene to give it a sense of scale.

San Zeno Maggiore

The forest grows for hundreds of years over the stones, what lie here for hundreds of thousands. Time has a different scale here, it doesn't rush anywhere. You come here and you let the time go.

Scale, noun, relative size. From Latin scala, ladder. Sometimes hard to judge in viewing and/or photographing landscapes. For example, this is a portion of the East wall of Glen Canyon, immediately downstream from the dam. The ladder at right apparently offers safe passage for a broad-shouldered man from the path with handrails at top right down to what appears to be a narrow ledge leading left to a cement block with a railing on top. Obviously functional, but completely mysterious to me. An example of Nature and Culture in close contact, neither making any concession to the other.

A view of the sheer enormity of the marsh grasses at the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, September, 2024. I had this one in my mind's eye, with the high winds today bending the grasses.

A little trip today to Scale Force near Buttermere. With a single 170ft drop followed by a further two 20ft drops Scale Force is considered the highest Waterfall in the Lake District.

Wordsworth described it as β€˜a fine chasm, with a lofty, though but slender, fall of water’.
