Crossings: No bird is afraid of falling, during it’s flight. // No stone cramps, ahead of being split / after tumbling down the mountain. // Wood supports metal, in this mirror.
Local government authorities who commissioned this public sculpture, refer to it as “a whimsical and celebratory reference to a nearby, much-loved Merry-Go-Round.”
The doll, which is accompanied either side by two decorated carousel dogs, is a favourite with children, who clamber around it as parents take snaps.
Not clear why the sculptor named her creation, The Other Side of Midnight. This is my nightmare interpretation.
Sculptor: Anne Ross, 2012

I have always loved the desert. You sit on a sand dune. You see nothing. You do not hear anything. And yet something shines silently

J'ai toujours aimé le désert. On s'assoit sur une dune de sable. On ne voit rien. On n'entend rien. Et cependant quelque chose rayonne en silence

I havnt posted for a week or so because I've been away in Liverpool for the past week. I only had two free evenings to go out and take photos. Yesterday evening I paid a visit to Crosby north of the city to see "Another Place" by a sculptor called Anthony Gormley who has created lots of these naked men statues and they are all dotted along the coast in front of a very busy shipping route.
I so nearly got caught out by the tide as I was so captivated by the Royal Princess sailing past. I didn't realise the tide had swirled in behind me and I was on a sand island. Fortunately I only got wet jeans and wounded pride as there was a bit of a crowd watching me who had already retreated to safety!!
This lovely scupture was created by Ramiz Barquet in 1984; titled "La Nostalgia".
Thank you for your comments and visits. Gail
if you live in london you need to go see the antony gormley exhibition at the haywood gallery, then you can pretend to be cultured like me

For this series of delicate and surreal sculptures. The artist envisioned, mouth-like space, adorned with metal structures and smoothwhite forms that resemble the equipment of dentistry, orthodontic braces and teeth. There is a sense here of contrasting forces and materials that are bound together in an ongoing negotiation of position. The metaphor of the gallery as a body suggests that this is not a neutral space, but rather one to be inhabited, activated and interrupted.
"Sitzende" from Wladimir & Natalia Rudolf; oak and oil color, 2012.
One of ten sculptures at the rivers Oertze and Wietze in Lower Saxony / Germany
