This ice sculpture set marks an upcoming international book fair in Europe, with an ice bench for posing.
Ice benches are found elsewhere on the street.
Here we have another look at some of the smaller sculptures.
While this is a wider view of the street.
This wall was an interactive one, with children applying coloured cubes of ice to the surface of the wall during the first weekend.
The Louis Riel sculpture kept drawing my attention during visits.
As did this one.
...the bench with wings is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteLove that last shot! Those couches look a bit too cold.
ReplyDeleteGreat sculptures, William!
ReplyDeleteThe eagle head and the bench with wings are my favorites!
Sorry that in the last days I have not left a comment, but I am sick!
The colours, when they apply, are very attractive, and the street scene too.
ReplyDeleteThose colored benches are wonderful.
ReplyDelete@Tom: definitely
ReplyDelete@Linda: very cold.
@Ella: I'm still behind.
@Anvilcloud: thanks.
@Jan: that they are.
Beautiful sculptures, both the small and big ones, and also the coloured ones.
ReplyDeleteHello, beautiful collection of ice sculptures. I love the colored lights at night. Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week ahead!

Saudações.

I am amazed that you had no other people in your shots...you must have been up late, or up before the sun to accomplish that! I like the winged one also!
ReplyDeleteIce seats, huh? Maybe I will stick with my sofa!
ReplyDeleteThe wings against the stained glass is a winner! ;-)
ReplyDeleteNice they had something special for kids. Kids will remember their experience and maybe one of them will become an ice carver.
ReplyDeleteI get a bit of chill just thinking about sitting on one of those benches. I love the color cubes!
ReplyDeleteWay Cool
ReplyDeleteThe colored ice cubes are fantastic.
ReplyDeleteNice photos
The ice benches would require very warm clothing on the derrière.
ReplyDeleteTalk about a chilly willy!
ReplyDeleteEveryone brought a smile. Tweeted.
ReplyDeleteThese are all fun! I could feel my warm rear end in those benches and wondered how long it would take for me to make a dent in one. :-)
ReplyDeleteTalk about a cold seat!!
ReplyDeletesuch a fun post and well chosen punch-line shot, William!
ReplyDeleteNo desire to sit on an ice bench, but I would happily stop and watch children put colored ice on the wall.
ReplyDeleteI've been really enjoying heated car seats the last couple of years. Which makes those benches look pretty unappealing despite their beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant! Big chilly on the bot the bench would be William 😉
ReplyDeleteI love all of these but the wings in front of that glass still win my heart!
ReplyDelete@Nancy: thank you!
ReplyDelete@Eileen: thanks!
@Megy: thanks.
@Barbara: these I took during a weekday night, when there were less people about. It was quite crowded on weekend nights.
@David: much warmer!
@RedPat: I think so.
@Red: perhaps!
@Sharon: I did too.
@Padre: definitely.
@Maywyn: thank you!
@Marie: definitely!
ReplyDelete@Catalyst: hah!
@Mari: thanks!
@DJan: uh oh!
@Happyone: indeed.
@Cloudia: thanks!
