Strange how the transparency of this makes it seem so spiritual . . like it is of the elements themselves. Again, well presented with the camera.

This is a standout photo, Richard... and as one who generally disdains modern sculpture, I have to admit that I really like this one.

Better than the previous one. The sculpture looks better too, like a cloud.

This great and original white sculpture makes a nice contrast with the vivid blue of the sky, well done.

VERY NICE SCULPTURE!!!Who is it from and where is this taken.???AND : how big is this????

@NADINE DERUYCK: It is called 'House of Knowledge' by the artist Jaune Plensa.
It stands around 20 meters tall I guess, so its quite a big piece. You can go inside and view the letters from within its inner space supposedly, but it was fenced off when I saw it, so could only shoot from the outside space.
its currently at Chatwworth House in Derbyshire, England.

It really is quite complex, and this shot gives a greater view. Wonderful.

I would never have guessed from yesterdays shot that the letters made this shape, wonderful perspective to have the sculpture highlights by the beautiful blue sky, very cool
