Brighton 2 - Afloat

I found this sculpture in Brighton - its location is called Doughnut Groyne - and I don't know which came first, the doughnut or the name.

I liked the way I could frame the sculpture and the life-ring and it came as a surprise to me when I found out that the sculpture is actually called Afloat!

Its a nice coincidence.



You can find more shots from around the world at Our World Tuesday.  SM

  17. Okay, you lost me here ... Coincidence? What coincidence and what is a life ring ... beside all of that I love how you framed the life ring with the big afloat donut ... the picture turned out great, but I think you went over my head with your comments:) Sorry ...
