CarHenge

Using a bunch of scrap cars, Skoda has recreated stonehenge next to Tower Bridge to mark the summer solstice (which is either today or tomorrow depending on where you check) and at the same time launch a new city-car..

It's only here until tomorrow apparently so I wandered down after work to get a shot... Not really happy with any of the pics I took - couldn't decide how best to frame the shot or whether to go with or without people....

It looks so odd with that wonderful bridge in the background! Winter solstice here!

I was there tonight too! And also really struggled with composition. My shots look rubbish so I probably won't use one for today. You managed to fit a lot into one shot!

OMG- Mental and so cool. Fav because it''s such a good art idea. Funny that they are skodas!- not Brit cars.

I saw photos of it on Instagram and was wondering what this is about. Hmmm interesting art ;)
June 21st, 2012  
well - absolutely this needed to be recorded! it is so very very cool... you got a lot in this photo, and i think that is a good thing for this... not sure what i would have done... i think the fact that people are walking thru and not really noticing is kind of interesting...

What an ugly thing!!! Good concept...rubbish production! lol
I really came by to ask you what happened to Isla? I missed her going and she has disappeared off my friends list :-(

Cool - saw this in the Evening Standard and wanted to check it out but just didn't get chance - FAV

Way cooler than the real deal (I remember the crappy patching job when I was there)

Interesting... not necessarily what I would call art, but someone else might.
