I think this is the same Great Blue Heron as in a few posts ago, or the same mistaken identification.

I found these brightly colored leaves floating in the clear green waters of the Tampa Bay oddly compelling compositions.

From Google image search I’m identifying this as a great blue heron. Either that or I’ve made a great big mistake.

We were planning on joining an Art Walk starting in the Warehouse District about a week and a half ago. By the time we got there it had been cancelled, the trolley garaged and the galleries shuttered. We found these compacted cubes of metal outside one of the warehouses of studios.
I couldn’t find any placards to identify these, the top image is a set of glass globes from their students; the bottom one is a close-up of a metal sculpture in the gardens.

There’s a garden full of glass and mixed media sculpture at the back of the Duncan McClellan gallery where I spotted this unavoidable flower, reverse identified by Yandex as an orchid (I wouldn’t know, a severe urbanite adrift).

Another gallery full of (mostly) glassworks – quite remarkable!

Actually ibises, I think, but hard to resist characterizing the juxtaposition…
St Petersburg appears to be a home for many artists working with glass. We saw a demonstration of the art at the Morean Arts Center, all of the above were shot at the Imagine Museum and still to come is the Duncan McClellan Gallery. We haven’t made it yet to the Chihuly collection. Apologies to artists of the works above if I mis-labeled any of the works.
