This week's Friday My Town Shoot-out theme is - Hot or Cold.
In the foreground is the Spiegelei - a perspective altering work in which a three-way camera obscura projects a 360 degree upside down visin of the Japanese garden. Unfortunately the weather was too dull for it work when we were there.
In the background of the top photo is "A Weight of Ice Carried from the North for You". Neville Gabie travelled to the Arctic in February 2010 to harvest this 10,000 year old piece of ice.
This highly experimental work in the gardens of Tatton Park queries the issues of global trade and sustainability.
The freezer cabinet is kept cold by means of 12 solar panels and a heat exchange unit in the nearby Golden Brook.
Why not check out other people's my town shoot-outs this week.
