Contest 232: Hedge fun management
Nothing to do with errant bankers - this one's a topiary issue. I photographed this hedge in a London park back in October. Fairly neatly maintained, although it could do with a bit of a trim. But, given the myriad forms a hedge can be carved into, isn't this dome shape a little repetitive and uninspired? Can you do better?

You can place your creations on the lawn in front, if you like, or adapt the existing hedge. The trick here is in the shading!

High res is here.

What a comeback the dodos have made - they're still alive!

Thanks Josephine.
I thought that I was being very silly with a topiary Dodo until I saw your Dalek. Excellent.
