Wind Sculpture

Just started my short visit to London today.  Since there's no train service to London from Gatwick on Boxing Day, I took a National Express coach to Victoria Station.  I decided to walk around a bit before checking in at my pad.  And there I saw Yinka Shonibare's gravity defying public art Wind Sculpture at Howick Place, just a few blocks from Victoria Station:

No galleries are open today.  And since I haven't slept much on the plane last night, I decided to call it a day ...

Torque

I read about Toronto's newly (2015) completed SFC Bridge a couple months ago.  I finally found time to visit this past weekend.  The pedestrian bridge connects the Southcore Financial Centre with Delta Hotel just off the Union Station section of PATH.  The Torque project of the SFC Bridge by Jennifer Marman & Daniel Borins with architect James Khamsi is the purpose of my visit.

I love the sunlight through triangular windows throwing polygonal shadows on to the geometric patterns on the wall ...

(Waiting for the night) Waiting for the day

I made two versions of Christmas ecards this year.  The night version was deemed too dark to be a greeting card.  So only the day version has been sent to my friends.

Both came from this original picture taken at Toronto's Union Station last month:
