The second upload in this series of the memorial sculpture in Poole, Dorset.
I gave this one a bit more of a dramatic angle.
It's near to the All-Weather Lifeboat Centre where I went for a tour in 2019.
It's a stainless steel boat and 2 figures. The sculptor, Sam Holland, intended the design to be bold and simple, incorporating the elements of courage, loss and remembrance.
In most cases, the names listed on the memorial saved the lives of others before losing their own.
With thanks to all who looked, voted and commented, and especially those who gave User Awards to my previous upload of this sculpture.
Pamela.
