Lights dangle from intersecting cords forming lines and angles and patterns of interest. The photograph is well anchored by the post set on the third of the frame. Clouds mix with post processing textures to create depth and more interest. Color is removed for simplicity.

This was part of the LuxCity festival. Two hoops attached together by rope were hung from a crane. Different coloured lights were used to illuminate the artwork and so it seemed to glow with a gossamer quality from a distance.
I'm trying to learn panoramics to add another string to my bow and Robin Hoods Bay seems quite appropriate for that! With the "Super Moon" came very low tides and I thought that was worth capturing, this shows about half of the bay and the "Scars" revealed on the ebb. I'm guilty of negligence and noticed the stitch has left imperfections, I could have hidden them but posted too quickly - check the horizon at full size. Disappointed!
Some of the steel strings (there are 29 in total!) and corresponding adjusting pegs of my monochord instrument, that I built this summer.
They are attached to pegs on the sound board, on the upper part of the instrument, which allows to adjust their tension. After going round a smooth 90° bend, they rest on a brass rod that transmits their vibrations to the wooden resonance body.
On a monochord, all the strings are tuned to the same tone. In my case, the last six are made of brass and are tuned an octave lower.
