NF-SOOC Day 25: Sailors' Accoutrements

This is a lifesize representation in the courtyard of the naval museum at Rochefort of some of the equipment that would have been used on a sailing ship: a coil of rope, a buoy and a a giant sextant. What I found amazing is that the whole thing, including the cart, is cast in bronze.

This is for my annual NF-SOOC September challenge - you can read all about it here: https://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/42451/nf-sooc-september-2019

BoB indeed!
The light sources, inside and out, conjure an era long gone, yet recalled and continued effectively in your shot.

very realistic sculpture. The b&w does seem to call up the time it was used.
