The street sculpture outside the Toledo Mud Hens stadium

I just loved this brass sculpture on the street looking inside the ball field - so realistic and nostalgic. The fact that it is winter, with snow on the ground - the farthest we can be from baseball season - just made this shot even more curious. A baseball field in the winter seems so desolate.

So what do they see when they look through the wall?

...certainly not a baseball game on Valentine's Day :)

  1. Those photos would make a great diptych (I think that's how it's spelled). Cool shots!

  3. I used to see these kinds of sculptures in Texas but this one looks better than those. I really like it.

  4. Another fine example of fun public art. I really like the whole idea of this one in particular. The kids catching a glimpse of the game through the boards of the fence. Conjures up thoughts of days past.

  5. I really like that you did it in Sepia. It compliments the brass sculpture and gives it the look of a scene from the past. Well done!

  6. Great shots! It's always hard to think of baseball at this time of year (especially with this much snow on the ground). But I think they start spring training in a couple of weeks (if they haven't already started!).
