The Kiss by maggiemae

The Kiss

In the middle of the South Island Lake district, the lake features in the distance - as does the tiny and famous church in Lake Tekapo. This is a life size sculpture from wood. I like the emotion with that famous background. (Another photo in this area was chosen for a TV1 photo at weather time!)
It's like a wooden version of 'The Lovers Statue' (sometimes referred to as 'The Kiss') by Paul Day, at St. Pancras in London. Lovely.

Terrific, looking sculpture, but it looks like it’s just their temporarily. I think I remember when you took the photo that was featured on the TV Weather show.

@grammyn Its for sale, Katy $2500. This photo is the latest that was accepted for the TV screen. Only once before, I think.

@jamibann I looked online for that statue, Issi - and it think it is far nicer than this wooden one!

A great image showing it in its beautiful setting. The sawn off tree stump in the clear area did make me wonder whether this area was once pine forest...

@happypat It was 30degC when we were there, Pat! Gorgeous if not a wee bit hot!

Great shot.

@robz I think you would be right Rob! Spoilt the view for all the houses overlooking the lake! So dry now though!
