At the playground where we sometimes go with our grandson there are a few installations about cool effects.  One is a kind of whirligig where one can turn a handle to create a vortex in the glass cylinder.

For Cee’s Odd Ball Challenge.  More oddballs can be found here.

Criss-cross

28 crossed a

A pure – if boring – crossed line.  But seldom have I seen such a perfect right angle in the sky.

28 crossed b

No comment necessary.

28 crossed c

It’s not a collage.  I took the picture because I liked the sign with the playing kids but it ended up looking like a deliberate patchwork.

28 crossed d

The ultimate in crossed lines, of course, is a half-timbered house.  This one stands in Lorsch, Germany. It is typical for the area with the wooden structure resting on a stone walls forming the ground floor.

These murals are from a playground.  They were created by youngsters, aged 15-17, from the local community and their twinned town in France (Hemsbach / Bray-sur-Seine), under the guidance of two artists, Motz Tietze and William Noblet.
