    This is a nice shot, Gerald, and the name sounds like it came from a motion picture. Blackpool North Pier. Perfect shot for Sky Watch Friday.

    Gorgeous shot! Congratulations! By the way, Anish Kapoor is English. I'll bet that sculpture you mentioned in Blackpool really is his. I'll look forward to seeing it someday on your blog.
