Jane and I went out to the movies to see "The Time Machine" a few days ago, but we were running late, and by the time we got there the queue was **this long**! So we decided to grab a coffee and a bite to eat and wander around this outer-suburban shopping area I had never been before...Found these wonderful metal sculptures in a little playground area, and snapped a couple of shots. I'm going back there eventually, not just for the sculptures but for some "Diry Urban-type'" a la Michelle's shots, this area was quite a find for lots of prospective images! :-)>

More Metal Bug images...the first one was an eye, they were illuminated from inside...

This one is "Classic PC."

One more detail of this one's eye...

Metal Snail (with distracting supermarket inexpertly photoshopped out of the background)... We never did get to see the movie! :-)>

Thanks Misha, lol - "Classic PC" you're right! I've always loved this sort of stuff...it was almost as if these creatures found me, instead of the otherway around...if that makes any sense. Have any of you ever felt that a particular scene or image has grabbed you and begged to be photographed, rather than you seizing the image? :-)>

The second one looks as a space-fly. Love them, and especially the waterdrops. Did you manage to get in time for the movie?

Hmm, I seem to forget what I read a second ago. You did not see the movie. Alzheimer light my daughter says when I ask her every now and then what day it is. :-)

Beautiful. Both the photos and the pieces themselves. PC you are so lucky to have such wonderful sculptures nearby... the best i have is a plastic "burger-barn" clown!!
