Andy Scott`s latest addition to Clackmannanshire has arrived and is on site at the side of Asda and the new train station. You can see it from the bus on the newly re-instated King street(ring road)!It is a lovely depiction of man and boy.I think looking at this piece will bring back a time(in those old enough to remember!!!!)when the industries were the reason these towns existed.

River SpiritThose of you with sharp eyes may have noticed a few changes around the county recently. Namely the pieces of Public Art which have appeared in various locations. I think the most commented on piece is "River Spirit",a beautiful sculpture of a woman holding the River Forth aloft.

Got to thinking that budding photographers and our more artistic members out there would probably like to post images in articles and blogs.

Well here goes.

To test things out I posted this photo I took of a butterfly in Alva Glen. Lookabootye is set up to link images from your Flickr photo album.
