  2. A bouguet of canoes. Who thinks up public art. It's wonderful. And the photos are great. I'm assuming no tripod...yet not a bit shake in the zoom. Nice!

  5. A bouquet of... canoes, which is probably normal over there. This is funny and creative and, I have to say, perfectly placed in front of that towering building.

  7. It was a clever person who thought of putting such a sculpture in this context - and it fits perfectly, softening an otherwise stark atmosphere with a burst of shape and colour.

    I very much like the middle photo.

    P.S. Will it last? Where I live, children and teenagers would try to get into the canoes and climb to the top of them.

  13. Lucy: nobody can get near that art piece. No teenagers roaming about in a luxury Vegas hotel.
