Running Man is a sculpture by Klaus Weber and is part of his exhibition "If you leave me I'm not coming". Running Man has continuously rotating legs and is like a cartoon character who has run off a cliff: suspended for instant with running legs before realising where he is and plummeting. Weber asks if society is in a similar state: suspended in disbelief on the edge of disaster?

Old Sleaford Road Bridge across River Witham near Tattershall, Lincolnshire.

I suspect few visitors notice this lovely old bridge as they speed over the new one on their way to Tattershall Castle.
