Terris Novalis, Consett - a photo on Flickriver

Terris Novalis, Consett

            After a week in the Lake District at the end of August, we moved over to the east coast, staying in South Shields for a couple of days. With the day to myself on Saturday, I decided to "kill two birds with one stone", the birds, in this case, being "Terris Novalis" in Consett and "Tommy" at Seaham. As it turned out, both visits were badly disrupted by heavy rain but I did manage to salvage something from both in the end. This image is a stitch of 8 shots, taken with the canon Powershot SX50 HS in one hand and an umbrella in the other!
Terris Novalis is a sculpture, made entirely from stainless steel, by artist Tony Cragg. It is a x20 scale representation of a pair of stylized surveying instruments, standing on a variety of animal / human feet / hands which are said to be inspired by local heraldic coats of arms.
The sculpture stands on what was the Stanhope &  Tyne railway line, which now forms part of the Coast-To-Coast (C2C) cycle route at Consett, County Durham.
