Wow, Paul. Thanks.
It just amazes me that someone can be so talented to take the two dimensional drawings Harry does and interprets them into three dimensional detail like this.
And to do it in wax without thinking of colors even.

Winging it on this one, but looks like a left-facing upright seahorse is right of the stairs, below the purple bush. This is not cast in stone (no pun intended) and won't be verified until one of the 2,500 produced is shipped to me, but the location appears to be as posted.
Paul, spectacular photography--you done good again!!

Fantastic photography, as usual, Paul. Your pictures are the next best thing to seeing the model in real life. Sandy, the last photo sure shows the seahorse very clearly, but how you found it next to the stairs - maybe if I use a magnifying glass.... This piece is really beautiful!!

Nope on the location of the seahorse, that's why I shot it so tight, so you couldn't tell exactly where it is located from that image.. It's not near the stairs at all.. That's just a rock near the stairs..
Clue: You can't see it in the wide shot from the direction I shot it from..

Wherever it is, it should be easy to find once we can see the piece. It is one of the best defined seahorses I've seen.

Nice pics !!! Thanks Paul !!!
Harry's work is incredable! I know once I have this one in hand, I'll be staring at it for awhile. Looking at every detail.

YOu sure have a way of making a piece come to life Paul! Thanks for the great pictures that we can always count on. Sure makes it easy to decide what pieces one wants and can't wait to get their hands one.

It sure appears that the original and the model are not a match. Love that old postcard!

Not next to the stairs, right of the stairs, below the purple bush. The undulation of the cliff and grass appears very similar to what's shown in the picture. But, Paul's "Clue" makes me wonder if I'm even on the right side of the sculpture!!

Yes, Sandy it is on the other side of the lighthouse in the first image or wide shot... The opposite end of the sculpture from the tower..
