Sunday Challenge: Have a seat!

Take a photograph of a chair. It can be an upholstered chair, a bench, a hard-backed chair or anything that you sit on. You can photograph it empty or in use. You can show all of it or just part of it. Consider whether you want to illustrate a feeling (restfulness, fatigue, comfort, etc.) or a design example. Use your imagination to create an interesting photograph and have fun doing so.

If you are interested in joining the Sunday Challenge Group and you are willing to comment on the photographs of others submitted as part of the friendly challenge, let me know and I will send you an invitation.

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.

HBM! The 20 hectare Horsbere Brook flood storage area was created in 2010 following a series of flash floods that affected more than 300 homes in Gloucester. The £1.5m project involved creating a huge ‘depression’ capable of accommodating the equivalent of 70 Olympic swimming pools full of water. If there’s torrential rain the water is now diverted into the depression, and it is then slowly released later.

As well as reducing the risk of flooding the storage area was also designed to be a natural looking ‘wetland’ landscape, and, over the last few years, it has become a delightful local nature reserve – attracting many rare birds to the area. Otters have also been spotted in the brook.

Tits, kingfishers, egrets, heron, swans and a wide range of both rare and more common birds are now regularly spotted here.

Happy Bench Monday !

Named for nearby Mt Dromedary, this little hotel is in the main street of the village of Central Tilba, established in the 1890s as a base for the local dairy industry and still with a cheese factory. Happy bench Monday and let's all hope for a good week.

LE PARC DU MOULI LIRON, PARAY LE MONIAL, BOURGOGNE, FRANCE.

Situé entre le canal du Centre et la Bourbince, le parc tient son nom d'un ancien moulin connu depuis le 15ème siècle. Près de 850 arbres et conifères jalonnent la promenade d'un kilomètre. Au 18ème siècle, il devient une ''hostellerie'' renommée détruite lors des travaux de construction du canal du Centre. Ce parc de 15 hectares a été créé pour la venue du Pape Jean-Paul II en 1986.
