Golf

 

Two young men teed off from the longest tees on the first hole.

A foursome took turns putting on the tenth hole.

A woman hit a drive very well on the fourth hole.

Whenever I have water in front of me, I tighten up.  This golfer got it over, but his aim wasn't good.

Tree-Lined Streets

 I like coming across tree-lined streets in Naples.

A Hovering Osprey

 

A male osprey hovered over the bay, studying the water, before swooping down in a failed attempt to grab a fish.

Dama III

 

Dama III is a 2003 bronze by the Spanish sculptor Manolo Valdes.  It sits at the entrance to Artis-Naples.

Artis-Naples

 Standing at the entrance doors of Artis-Naples and looking back toward the street, we look past a circular driveway and columns toward a polished stainless steel sculpture.

The sculpture by Arik Levy is called RockGrowth370.  If you wonder why a bunch of jutting steel columns are called RockGrowth370, I understand your confusion.  I watched the artist's video explaining it twice and still don't understand.

Bluestone

 I can't remember how many times I have photographed and then deleted this stacked bluestone sculpture in front of Artis-Naples.  It is Meshaliemet & Menashshe, a 1994 work by the late Israeli-American artist, Boaz Vaaadia.
