Chatsworth ~ Beyond Limits ~ 2012/15 ...

... and so to the sound of much cheering, sighs of relief and the odd muttered "Thank God that's it ..." we reach the last sculpture in 'Beyond Limits' at Chatsworth.

Fortunately we end with a good one, Nijinski Hare ...

It has been sited so that Chatsworth House provides the backdrop ...

I do feel though that it looks as though Nijinski Hare is playing football rather than ballet dancing ...

The slight haziness in the photo above was due to the water vapour drifting across from the Emperor Fountain over my right shoulder.

If you want to visit 'Beyond Limits' this year you'd better hurry ~ it ends tomorrow, Sunday, the 28th October 2012.

I end with Nijinski Hare getting in a cross from the wing dancing off into the autumn night.

 I'm not quite finished though. Overall I found this year's 'Beyond Limits' the most disappointing since I first started to view them. Much as I love Barry Flanagan's work you can have too much of a good thing and this year I had too much of Barry's work. Lets hope that next year's 'Beyond Limits' has a little more variety.
