But what are they looking at?

James Turrell is widely acknowledged as one of the most important artists working today. From the mid 1960s onwards his principal concern has been the way we apprehend light and space.

One of Turrell's ‘Skyspaces’, is an enclosed viewing chamber that affects our perception of the sky, and James and Adrian are calmly watching clouds through the open space in the roof. See the PiP.

I found that sitting in this chamber to be mesmerising, and immensly calming. Very suitable for those wishing to meditate.

May 17, 2026 - SC 197 - Have a seat!

I have had this little chair for over 35 years. When I bought it (cheap), the camework on the seat was totally broken. A good friend replaced the canework, and I cleaned and waxed the wood. It stays in the guest bedroom, for folks to either hang clothes on the back or just throw them onto the chair.

During our visit to Gibraltar, we had a nice tour. At one point, we were looking straight down the rock towards the harbor.

Very impressive wall!

The Edwardian garden at Hestercombe was the first collaboration of gardener Gertrude Jekyll and architect Edwin Lutyens. Both the bench and the paving using old millstones were designed by Edwin Lutyens.
