Cool Art in the Open Air

These were taken at David Marshall Lodge, near Aberfoyle

Reflected

Viewed large I think it looks better

Tree Warmers?

Beam me up, Scotty! That's what comes to my mind when I look at the first one. What a strange and interesting way to display art. A unique find and well captured.

We were surprised to see all the exhibits, we were walking to take pictures of the waterfall and just had to take some of them. Thanks Mike.

Wow Bill what a lovely place to wander through, an art gallery in the woods. I just love the first one. But all of your shots are excellent. Thanks for sharing this very unique place.

Dave.

That first one reminded me of the movie "Predator", spooky, but well captured!

Thank you, this was a really good exhibit, when you approached it only looked like one figure and then more appeared, almost like magic, the picture was taken from the far side.
