Messing around with a tape measure and a lamp:

Candid photo. Lots of photoshopping on this one.

Wow! So many great things about these photos. Love your perspective and use of lighting, esp in the tape measure one.

Thanks everyone. Oh, and JonMikal - lucky you! When I first saw that sculpture I went crazy! I love it so much. Seeing it also made me realise how much I look at the world in terms of potential photos these days. I was immediately assessing the light, and thinking about the best angle for it. Unfortunately the sculpture park is 2 hours drive from me, otherwise I'd pretty much live there.

I'm sure some people live there :wink:

I can't help but think that buggs bunny was the inspiration for this sculpture.... With the Anvil and all.... :mrgreen:

Actually, people do! One of the campuses of Leeds University is located in the park. Unfortunately, I have no desire to study drama and interpretive dance at Leeds, otherwise it'd be great.
