Late afternoon

Henry Moore's Oval with Points (inspired by an elephant skull) glows in the sun. Just before I left for Cambridge, Massachusetts, I caught a few sunny afternoon moments. I'm glad I did as it's been rather grey since.

In photography, framing always enhances.

You have made great use of the sculpture for framing the wonderful golden light!

An unusual and interesting shot. The sculpture has an elephantine feeling to it, but so do most of Mr Moore's works.

That is what I call creative vision and you have it Lulu! The first picture is outstanding! You framed a building so beautifully and I love this composition!

You find such amazing places and you make out of them an art!!!

Una curiosa y atractiva forma de fotografiar, a través de Moore,
los edificios de la universidad. Me gusta, son buenas fotografías.

...and snow too? Think you must have had more. Love these shots - contrast of the colors are great and the top shot is super!

I'm feeling a bit better. Way behind on things we wanted to do but time enough to visit some neat blogs, like yours :).

Two quite different approaches to the sculpture with very different feelings. You have a great eye for this.
