The Botanical Gardens at the foot of Mt Cootha (Brisbane Queensland).
Just outside the Japanese gardens enclosure. There are a lot of
sculptures in the bush there. Most are relying (like this one) on the
shock value to attract your attention.

I didn't even notice the hands, after a quick glance I thought, "cool
pic of that seed pod I saw a few years ago" :-)

Thanks! I'm not shocked by it... although as you point out it does grab
your attention. It does however make me wonder how they did it.

wonders what other interesting photos (like this) you may have from down
under that you maybe willing to share a look at...

The Brisbane Botanic Gardens are located 7 km from the city of
Brisbane in Toowong, Queensland, at the foot of Brisbane's tallest
mountain, Mount Coot-tha.


And as you know, D-Mac, Toowongs don't make a right.
