Some pictures of the cross in situ. These are not such good photos, and I aim to get some better ones soon. The positioning of the strong lights in the church hall is good for the art work, but not for taking photographs. A high wall to one side cuts out the light from across the hall - frustrating! I aim to use a mobile light source for better pics, so watch this space...

This evening, new ragged cross was sited in the church hall of Selby Methodist Church. The cross was wrapped in bubble wrap and carried through the streets of Selby to the location. I would like to thank Nigel Currey for assisting me in this task. He played the role of minder very well, especially amidst the comments we drew.
The diagram above is by Martin Pascoe. I woould like to pay tribute to Martin, who worked brilliantly and efficiently in suspending the cross this evening. His clever planning, care and dexterity with the fixtures, fittings and wires, were truly impressive, and with only one set of long ladders!
Photos of the cross in situ will follow.

Here are some photos showing this side of the cross completed. The moving of the cross to the church hall may be a tricky procedure, as it is more delicate than it looks. Fingers crossed the siting of the work goes well.

The work is nearly complete! All that remains is to turn the cross over, and attach a number of flower- and leaf-shapes to the 'nature' side. After that....the hanging. Above are some photos showing details of the finished side.
