I got some nice early morning shots of Maggi Hamblings sculpture on Aldeburgh beach t’other morning. It catches the morning light something lovely and goes through a whole range of metallic shades as it reflects the light. Supposedly a “controversial” sculpture it has built up a following of some pretty determined vandals, Vandalised 13 times so far, Personally I think it’s an asset to the location. Being a lover of the old sea food I’d love to see a real scallop that size. That’d give that bloke on Man Vs Food a run for his money eh!

Great shots. I also posted some shots of this sculpture earlier this week (http://adrianpym.wordpress.com/2012/06/25/that-will-not-be-drowned/ and http://adrianpym.wordpress.com/2012/06/23/i-hear-those-voices/)
Cheers! Nicely done btw. Now following 🙂
Right grand, lad. I’ve always fancied a scallop sculpture.
I prefer em on a plate 😀
It’s really beautiful and if the vandals are caught (which they never are), I suggest immediate and harsh punishment of 20 years of community service.
They think its one particularly disgruntled local resident of Aldeburgh who objected to a man made object spoiling their view of the beach . . . but nothing proven so far 🙂
Nicely captured.
Your “Benjamin Britten” tag made me laugh. I understand the Aldeburgh connection, but with your stated love of seafood I can’t help thinking of “Albert Herring.”
I am the “May King” of July :o)
What a wonderful sculpture! I particularly like the second and third shots – I like the space around the shell in the second but prefer the color and ‘clean’ horizon in the third.
Cheers! I love the way it reflects the changing light of the golden hours, seems to be different every day. Must try and see what a sunset does to it with the sea in the background.
great low PoV, they look like they should be some sort of architectural structure rather than shells.
Cheers ! One day maggi Hambling may take up architecture, you never know 🙂
Great pictures, Lee! They’re all good, by the top one more so – for me anyway! Adrian
Cheers Adrian Thank you 🙂
You shot this with the most perfectly clear and gradaded sky. This is incredibly beautiful.
Cheers thanks 🙂
Interesting sculpture! Vandals don’t appreciate art. Thanks for sharing and also for visiting my blog.
Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Nice shots!
