I love that this sculpture is in a private garden in London. I think it is fantastic. I have no idea who the artist is.

Hi Debbie
Your image of the trains is amazing. If it weren’t for the figure walking on the right-hand side, I would have suspected some darkroom magic afoot.
Here’s my take on One Word Sunday, with a lot more than one word however:
Best, Babsje

If it weren’t for that person and the buildings, Debbie, it would be like looking at a mirror image!
My post this week is a more natural kind of symmetry… kind of… https://wp.me/sVkLb-symmetry

Yes I sometimes think it is a reflection as I like taking that sort of shot. I enjoyed your springtime symmetry. One to cheer our spirits 😀

Love the symmetry of the roof, very grand for a small station. https://alondonmiscellany.wordpress.com/2022/03/13/symmetry/

The facade is very much beaux arts and symmetry seems to have played a large part in the design of the building both in and out

Not long as it happens – the trains were in and waiting for me 🙂
It’s a stunningly beautiful station – I must share images of the main building and its azulejos
And I enjoyed our natural approach, Elke – and you chose a great topic

I can never resist capturing symmetry if I spot it, and it really shows off the beauty of this station.
I enjoyed your examples, Maria – great to see the natural symmetry in contrast to my man-made

at first I thought it was a perfect reflection – everything fits.

Thanks for the mention, Debbie. ❤️ It’s always appreciated. I’m in California for a couple days yet and can’t link my One Word post so if you have time to do so, I’d appreciate it. I’ll be able to respond to comments and visit a bit but enjoying a bit of family time.
Love your symmetry shot!
