 A visit to Edward Tufte's Landscape Sculpture Farm yielded this photo. It is worth the visit!

The small stand of bamboo among the sculpture garden provides a hidden and quiet moment of solitude. The breeze generates an overwhelming rustle thru the reeds and a coolness on a warm day in the protected path created by the artist with this one bench for sitting and reflection.
