The sun had been playing hide and seek for a good part of the afternoon. Then suddenly, it sprang up and illuminated with a bright light Place Stanislas and the statue of King Stanislas which sits on the square.

Rayon de soleil sur la place Stanislas
Le soleil avait joué à cache cache une bonne partie de l'après-midi. Puis tout à coup, il a jailli et éclairé d'une lumière vive la place Stanislas et la statue du roi Stanislas qui trône sur la place.

In the Avenide de las Americas and outside the George R. Brown Convention Center stands “Wings Over Water” a creation by artist and sculptor Joe O’Connell. It represents the fluttering wing feathers of a migrating bird (a very large one) and underneath, a fountain displays changing light around the kinetic sculpture in waves of red, white, blue, and greens. The Sculpture is 70 feet long, and is made of steel, aluminum and high-tech stamisol fabric, and this is a small section of the sculpture.
Between 1428 and 1450, when it was dug, Het Singel was part of the perimeter of Amsterdam. Today, of course, it's a very central canal. Construction at Bridge 8 - once called 'Distribution-to-the-Poor Bridge' - at the Raadhuisstraat crossing made a temporary bridge a few meters away necessary. It's now used by pedestrians and bikes. The light sculpture was designed by René Gast and Yvonne Kroes. It's a playful rendering of an Octopus. That fits a tradition in Amsterdam that shows magical creatures sculpted in many of its bridges. Moreover, you'll often see Octopi on old sea charts and world maps. At the Raadhuisstraat it symbolises the maritine power once of Amsterdam to the very horizons of the oceans.
The photo was taken from the Torensluis Bridge.

My copy of the sculpture of the “Dama de Elche” which is a limestone bust discovered in 1897 at La Alcudia, an archaeological site on a private estate two kilometers south of Elche, Spain. It is currently exhibited in the National Archaeological Museum in Madrid. It is believed the original dates back to the 4th century BC.
One from a couple of years ago on Ringing Roger.
Love these natural sculptures that sit high above Edale.
Thanks for looking.

Reflection of the entrance to the Adelaide Central Plaza in the stainless steel sculpture (aptly named Malls Balls) of two balls, one balanced on top of the other.
It is situated in the middle of Rundle Mall -- the main city shopping mall, with wide paved street filled with trees, lamp posts, benches, buskers, and the occassional bike trailer selling food.
"Thelia Shelton’s piece “Share the Love” was installed at TTC’s Neville Park Loop. The piece has a partly seated figure with a brightly lit red heart that speaks to sympathy, empathy and an inherent need for humans to receive and share love".

This is 'Old Neptune' Public House in Whitstable, Kent. It is one of only a handful of pubs to be found on the beaches of Britain.
Like much of Whitstable beach, the site of the Old Neptune was probably occupied by a boatyard workshop which was washed away in Estuary storms and gales.....
In 1853 the Old Neptune Beer House suffered serious structural damage when an exceptionally high tide combined with a northerly gale washed away her foundations. Another great storm in 1883 resulted in the wrecking of several vessels awaiting repair along the shore. The Neptune, although spared this time was used as a temporary morgue to receive bodies of those killed in the storm.
Finally in 1897 the old wooden building was completely washed away by another great storm.. The Old Neptune was rebuilt using timber reclaimed from the original structure and several other cottages that had also been destroyed.
Although the building has warped and twisted over the years, the timber structure seems to accommodate movement as can be seen in the window frames and sloping floors.....
Thanks for visiting.. ..

Some info and another photo of the scaffolding tubing scuptures around Corsham town. I found a Facebook page that described them as gibbons, which is probably right as they don't have tails! So now we know!
‘Let’s Dance’ by Duncan McKellar.
Renowned installation artist Duncan Mckellar, based in Bristol, is creating a new piece for Corsham, consisting of a series of bright yellow monkeys which can be found throughout the high street. Duncan’s work addresses social interaction, global interconnectivity and a sense of place.
Embedding a piece in its environment, utilizing found objects and involving the public are the foundation of his work. These works are playful and bold, creating a wonderful contrast with the architecture of the town.
