- So it might be warmer now, but it wasn't long ago that it was Baltic, as this #Fujifilm #S9600 owner's blog proves! http://t.co/sNVjkZe48E
- Sending one of these (mic, not camera) to @geekanoids to have a play with and let us know what they think http://t.co/oMdKC1XbZX
- Not quite sure how this #Fujifilm #HS10 managed to stop this fast-moving subject in its tracks - that's some skill! http://t.co/I2Vz8rGj80
- Perfect for British weather... http://t.co/CcYvg6Zr3b #rain #waterproofcamera http://t.co/K7E42nz2LZ

Clever find Peter. Good angle and detail. The pink unusual shaped contraption really stands out against the greenery. I nearly put in my extreme dining where you were suspended by a crane above Princes Street Gardens but changed my mind.

Excellent idea, Peter, it looks amazing, something like a modern version of the Hanging Gardens of Semiramiada ...
Good luck.

LOL. That certainly is extreme....you would need a very tall ladder to undertake the weeding! I like the green foliage against the pink of the structure. Very interesting capture. Well done Peter.

Thanks for all your comments. This was a true spectacle and this is only one element of the whole design! I would like one of these, but unfortunately, I can't fit a crane into my garden.

Wonder if he wore a parachute when pottering around his garden! Nice shot Peter. Thanks for your nice comment.
When they rebuild it in Ireland I hope they remember that it's green side up! (only joking).
