Azura Sculpture #1

The story behind this image

On a sunny day a cruise liner becomes a photographer's playground.

Mind you - I wasn't expecting to find life sized humanoid sculptures dotted around the decks of the P&O liner Azura, as Liz and I enjoyed a cruise up to Iceland and back.

So I took advantage of one of the few bright days at sea to photograph the pieces, by Andrew Sinclair, wherever I could find them.

I found the sinuous curves of these completely white statues captured the directional sunlight beautifully.

Here is a photo of an artist's plaque next to one of the sculptures, giving some background to the works.
