Not an official park or garden but in the garden of a place tourists tend to visit.

Yes, less than 100 km North and West from Newcastle.

I actually shot this last Saturday.... :)

If you look on the map/Google Earth you can see that both Dubbo and Bathhurst are far more than 100km from Newcastle (and Bathurst is SW)

So the answer is NO. :)

I think there is no easy way to narrow down the winery where this sculpture (and one quite similar) is standing: De Iuliis Winery, Broke Road, Pokolbin (with an art Gallery named Butterfly and an excellent restaurant "Cracked Pepper").

Therefore... over to you!

Yea, I tried to narrow it down for a little while. Then I decided to post it on here hoping someone else would do the dirty work from that point on. I just found it funny how I wasn't the only one who thought it looked like a stormtrooper on stilts. Although, it actually looks more like a Boba Fett.

You could have left it for a while since we like the challenge.

Since Henk gave it me... WAIN?
