[Leica] PESO [IMG]: The Moon's a Balloon

[Peter Dzwig]

Some of you may recognise the title from David Niven's autobiography. 
Here it is pretty much true!

Luke Jerram's installation made using NASA images of the Moon recently 
stopped at Tewkesbury Abbey, near me, on its world tour. It's not 
strictly a balloon, but a sculpture comprised of a number of panels, 
kept in shape by air pumped into it.

If you haven't seen it already near you, take a look.

I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was seriously impressed, 
particularly in this mediaeval setting.

You may want to look at it slightly smaller than full screen to ge the 
full image and a sense of scale.

Thanks for looking and as ever your C&Cs are much appreciated.
