Each year before Valentine's Day, it is typical to find a heart ice sculpture carved in Confederation Park.
I stopped by where the Kettle Boys were set up; I wanted a photograph of the fire, and a demonstration was going on.
I liked this art installation, consisting of four different posts with representations of flora and fauna.
That is a beautifully carved heart ice sculpture. Great photos. Have a beautiful Sunday!
ReplyDeleteLooove the heart sculpture William, the flora and fauna posts are excellent!
ReplyDeletecute heart. ( :
ReplyDeleteOh the heart sculpture I love. William. Great for having pictures taken from the open center. Looks like someone just took the words out of my mouth.

ReplyDeleteI looked at the last four photos a couple of times and then went back and saw that they were art installations and then I said"Oh, Cool!"
