Sculptures by the Sea 2016

Annual events like the Bondi to Tamarama Beach Sculptures by the Sea remind you how quickly time flies by. This year marked the 20th anniversary of the event.

Mr Seasons & I had so much fun taking photos of the sculptures this year, I think I will have to turn this into a 'to be continued' post. The afternoon was perfect. 
About 25 C degrees, a little breeze and moderate crowds.
A few of the sculptures suffered storm damage last weekend, but there was still plenty to see.
As per usual, there was the usual mixture of graceful, baffling and idealogicial.

Sculptures by the Sea

Another year has flown by and once again it is time to feature Sculptures By the Sea.
We love going late on a Sunday afternoon, especially if there's a storm brewing.
It's a great way to clear the crowds.
We diehards, shelter under the sandstone cliff with a coffee, watching everyone else scuttle and scurry away. The storm passes and we're left to enjoy the sculptures - freshly washed, dust-free and glistening in the weird evening light.



The Barbie Wave created a lot of interest!


But I prefer the more simple, elegant designs.

Woolwich Sculptures

A couple of weeks ago I went to Woolwich to view their annual Sculptures by the Sea.
It's becoming known as a place of curious art and sculptures in a glorious setting.

I enjoyed the humour of the seagulls.
The red-backed spiders are scary at any time.
Political and social comments were on show.
But I still prefer the simple, elegant designs that seem to float in their space.
Which ones do you like best?
