Sculpture by the Sea, 2012 (3)

This is my third and final post of sculptures from this year's Sculpture by the Sea exhibition.
Most were situated in or near Mark's Park which is about half way on the walk between Tamarama and Bondi Beaches. We sought out some shade for our lunch break at this spot.

The Bronte to Bondi coastal walk is a very scenic walk which can be enjoyed most days, not just when 'Sculpture by the Sea' is on.
