Folly, inside and out

Faringdon Folley Tower
This is considered the last major folly to be built in England.

Fall is creeping in

Nearing golden hour at the Saganashkee Slough.  Near this spot there was once a small hand-dug canal that fed water from a man made lake at Blue Island to the I&M canal.  It was probably little more than a ditch through a swamp, but it supposedly carried some freight traffic.  When the Cal-Sag channel was dug, the excavated soil created a dam making this this slough.

Falling


Seen at the Dubai mall.  
If you are going to have public art, this is how to do it!  I’m told this display is a tip of the hat to Dubai’s early days when pearl diving was a significant source of income.
