water sculpture at Brick Bay Sculpture trail
Posted by kiwisa (North Shore, New Zealand) on 6 November 2009 in Art & Design and Portfolio.
An amazing vineyard just north of Warkworth with a bush trail, exhibiting sculptural pieces in the vast landscape. This stunning polished stainless steel piece floats around the pond/lake, catching the sun while reflecting the sky and water.
Thank you for viewing my photos. I love receiving comments and critiques. I am constantly inspired by all the wonderful photographers on 3minus, so although I may not always thank you, I will visit your photo page and leave a comment.
@Zing: thanks reflections are also so much fun to capture
@Tamara: thanks Tamara, I took lots of the artwork at the trail, but this was one of my favourites
@ripple: thanks it was just floating around the lake at the entrance, ever-changing like a model on the catwalk.

Good evening Kiwisa,
the sculpture looks like wings to me. The artist who designed it, was very ingenious and creative. It pleases me very well. It is a very nice focal point in the water. Dear greetings Christel

Thanks Christel, as the sculpture moved in the water it changed and from other angles even looked like a ribcage or the spines of a sea monster. Most intriguing.

This is a REALLY cool shot. Love the composition--the way the sculpture angles through the frame. There may be several images in here if you play with the cropping. Well done,
