Fine sculpture, Tom.
Tom Wilson: It is Ray - I'm continually amazed by how much public art a town of 100,000 popln can afford!
What a pleasant thing to come across!
Tom Wilson: I thought it looked particularly good in the snow smile It's just across the river from the bus station, in the City Park.

I love sculptures like this, Tom!
Tom Wilson: Me too, Ginnie. Within 100 metres of this statue there are five or six more!

He is just showing off really Tom. No fear of the cold I see.
Tom Wilson: Don't seem to be affected at all, do they - probably Swedish toughness!
I like this. But then I sold children's play equipment at one time!
Tom Wilson: Are there many occupations you haven't engaged in at one time or another, Bill? smile

It's pleasing, simply an err...stark Tom
Tom Wilson: Yes - typifies the Swedish attitude to nudity, too smile
Love the sculpture, and I love you mono capture, too. (:o)
Tom Wilson: Thanks, Rosalyn.
Cool sculpture.
Tom Wilson: Yeah, I liked it, Mary
nice in B&W
Tom Wilson: Thanks, Chantal - seemed appropriate, given all the snow!
Love it! Shows a great sense of balance, Tom, and a disdain for weather conditions.
Tom Wilson: Thanks, Beverly - hardy lot these Swedes, you know smile
Could you honestly imagine a sculpture like this being put in a park over, here, of course you can't, silly question!
Tom Wilson: Things have really got out of hand here, Brian - the sensibilities are such that kids are going to be protected from every imaginable AND unimaginable harm, to the extent that they will be completely unprepared for the cruel, hard real world!
Quite an elegant sculpture Tom!
Fine capture.
Tom Wilson: It is, isn't it? Thanks, Richard.

Looks a bit nippy to be seesawing in the flesh .. or are they wearing those skintight ski-jumper suits? wink
Tom Wilson: Hardy lot these Swedes, Alan! smile
