I still have a few SWELL shots to share. This time it is a close up or 'It's Not Too Late' by Jo Norton.

Among the works at @swellsculpture 2022 that caught my attention was 'The Sentinel in a Seminal Age' by Christopher Trotter, who is well known to Brisbane photographers for his much-photographed works including 'Biomechanical Pelicans' which survived the floods this year near the Captain Cook Bridge, 'Steam Fish' and 'Cormorant' in Fish Lane, and 'The City Roos' in George Street. * * * @christophertrotter #thesentinelinaseminalage #christophertrotter #SWELLsnap2022 #SWELL2022 #SWELLsculpture2022 #sculpture #contemporarysculpture #igersgoldcoast #wearegoldcoast #visitgoldcoast #currumbin #currumbinbeach #thisisqueensland #raw_australia_nz #raw_vip #tv_australia #igersaustralia #destinationgoldcoast #australia_oz #total_australia #australia_oz #Signatureshots_hub #FeatureMeTeds #justshootqld #visitqueensland #focusaustralia #abcmyphoto #exquisitepics20_australia #exquisitepics20_travel

I loved the very yellow "Infinite Attractors" by Charlie Trivers. The @swellsculpture program says: "The sculpture is one continuous loop having no beginning or end. It is a metaphor for life, not just humanity but also the ocean, since the future of both are inextricably linked." * * * #charlietrivers #infiniteattractors #SWELLsnap2022 #SWELL2022 #SWELLsculpture2022 #sculpture #contemporarysculpture #igersgoldcoast #wearegoldcoast #visitgoldcoast #currumbin #currumbinbeach #thisisqueensland #raw_australia_nz #raw_vip #tv_australia #igersaustralia #destinationgoldcoast #australia_oz #total_australia #australia_oz #Signatureshots_hub #FeatureMeTeds #justshootqld #visitqueensland #focusaustralia #abcmyphoto #exquisitepics20_australia #exquisitepics20_travel

I do like big shiny sculptures and "The Ammonoid" by Remo Vallance fits the bill. The Ammonoid takes its form from the Ammonite Spiral, the oldest fossil found in the natural environment. Ammonites evolved about 416 million years ago and were once the most abundant animals of the ancient seas. Scientists have identified more than 10,000 ammonite species. The artist uses this form as a metaphor for change. * * * @swellsculpture #theammonoid #RemoVallance #SWELLsnap2022 #SWELL2022 #SWELLsculpture2022 #sculpture #contemporarysculpture #igersgoldcoast #wearegoldcoast #visitgoldcoast #currumbin #currumbinbeach #thisisqueensland #raw_australia_nz #raw_vip #tv_australia #igersaustralia #destinationgoldcoast #australia_oz #total_australia #australia_oz #Signatureshots_hub #FeatureMeTeds #justshootqld #visitqueensland #focusaustralia #abcmyphoto #exquisitepics20_australia #exquisitepics20_travel
