We've been pretty well here Andrew, hope nothing too serious your way.
Ok, I've pulled the pin on my eight legged friend for a couple of reasons, I wasn't really happy with it (the macro guys get HEAPS better shots just playing around), and though it sort of fitted the theme, I felt it lacked a certain j'nais ces't qois... but I don't know what it is. Here is my short list that didn't make the cut.
1. Octopod, speaks for itself really.
2. Cassandra, a sculpture in Brisbane representing the Greek Tragedy: Agamemnon. Cassandra was a Trojan princess who prophesied the fall of Troy, captive of Agamamnon and taken to Greece, and killed with Agamemnon at his welcome feast by his wife, Clytemnestra, and her lover. Cassandra represents Prophesy.
3. Agamemnon (as above), represents Power.
4. Some detail of Agamemnon
5. Aegisthus, son of Agamemnon and Cassandra who returs to Greece and avenges his fathers murder. Aegisthus represents The Machine
.
Great family story really
. I really like these sculptures, and not because Clytemnestra (couldn't get a good shot because of the lighting) looks like a Darlek
.
Anyway, Cassandra would have been my second choice, but I got a brainwave driving home tonight to do a shoot of the kids lego... Gotta love bright colours.
