I wanted to capture the special light atmosphere: the curving LEDs of Tiger and Turtle glowing at dusk, combined with the stunning colors of the sunset.

German artists Heike Mutter and Ulrich Genth created this place out of zinc and steel left over from local mining operations and its main purpose is to exist as an unusual venue to view the gorgeous German countryside around it.

While a little disappointing that physics don’t allow for passage around the loop, you can still work off that amusement park lunch at the speed of a turtle on a structure that represents the speed of a tiger.

With 249 steps making up the walkway and LED lights so that the climb can be appreciated after dark, this twisted metal track offers a great view during day or night.

Pedestrian bridge with an intricate loop structure stands over a grassy hill with several people walking across and around it. A clouded sky serves as the backdrop, and the landscape extends into an industrial area with multiple containers in the distance.

The sky in the background is overcast.Vertical metal staircase spirals dramatically against a cloudy sky, featuring dark steel beams and openwork steps. Two people are visible ascending the stairway, silhouetted by the overcast lighting. The structure appears both architectural and sculptural, emphasizing a sense of ascent and descent through its circular design.Vertical loop-shaped metal staircase with grid and mesh design against a cloudy sky, overlooking an industrial landscape with distant smokestacks and structures. People on and around the staircase add a human element to the scene.Looping metal staircase structure with a curved design, placed in an outdoor setting with grass below and industrial background with smokestacks. The structure is comprised of numerous metal steps enclosed by high, protective metal railings, creating an ascending and descending pathway for users. A few people are visible walking on and around the staircase, emphasizing its scale and the open, airy nature of its construction.

Wenn ich hier im Westen auf einen Berg gehe, ist das natürlich kein normaler Berg, sondern ein „Magic Mountain“. Mit der begehbaren Achterbahn „Tiger & Turtle“.

Eine begehbare Kunst-Installation, die wie eine Achterbahn aussieht.  Drum herum Rosenhecken und eine Wiese.

Moin.
Nach 6 Wochen Unpäßlichkeiten (Bronchitis gefolgt von Gastritis.... autsch), gestern endlich wieder etwas aktiv gewesen.
Nach einem #Spaziergang zur #Halde #Rheinelbe in GE, ging es zur Installation #TigerAndTurtle in Duisburg.
Ausklingen ließen wir dann den Tag in der #Niederrhein-Therme. Wieder unter Zuhilfenahme der #Ruhrtopcard. 4h für 3 Euro Aufpreis. Yeah!
Bilder von meinem #Pixel6a mit #grapheneos.

Eine Halde (Abraum der Industrie, renaturiert) mit einer turmartigen Installation aus gebrauchten Stahlbetonsteinen auf der Spitze. Hat irgendwie ein aztekischen Aussehen.
Wird auch als Himmelstreppe bezeichnet.
Der obere Teil ist weitgehend vegetationslos.
Der  gestaltete Berg spiegelt sich in einem kleinen See.
Es ist sonnig. Blauer Himmel mit einigen Wolkenfetzen.Im oberen Teil ist eine achterbahnartige Installation aus begehbaren Treppen (bis auf den Looping) zu sehen.
Im Vordergrund die Schatten von mir und meiner Frau.
Ein Weg führt gebogen am Tiger and Turtle vorbei.Blick durch den Looping auf die untergehende Sonne und eine Industrieanlage.Im Eingangsbereich der Niederrhein-Therme ist eine Dekoration mit salzhaltigen Steinen zu sehen.
Im Hintergrund der Schriftzug "Salzgrotte" an der Wand.
