Theme Day: Circles/Spheres - Fangio's Wheels
Once again it's Theme Day. Today's Theme is Circles/Spheres and here you see the steering wheel of the late, great Fangio's Mercedes-Benz. It's a sculpture that stands on one corner of Port Hercule in Monaco. As you see in the smaller photo - the centre of the wheel features the famous Mercedes-Benz logo.
Juan Manuel Fangio was Grand Prix World Champion five times in the 1950s. (Click on the link to see the entire sculpture).
Bloggers from 187 different cities around the world are taking part in today's Theme and will, I know, interpret this theme in a myriad of fascinating ways. Click here to view thumbnails for all participants.

This is a very original choice as it's so much part of your daily photo area. Excellent choice and narrative too.
Great choice for theme day. Cheers!
So essentially Monte Carlo (I can say that with authority now that I've been following your blog; makes me so worldly and glamorous!)!
Bravo!
Another fantastic theme day pic!

I like the Mercedes-Benz logo in the small photo the best. Nice touch.
Great choice for theme day, Jilly!
Cool choice. I remember or remember hearing about Juan Fangio. MB
What a great choice Jilly - when I grew up everyone knew about Fangio, and what a perfect circle for today's theme.
Yesterday's portrait of scouts and guides is excellent and I LOVED your story about you in the press stand. You're doing really well Jilly!
Interesting sculpture!
Perfect choice for theme day! Formula 1 and Monaco are inextricably linked in my mind.
Your photos are always so engaging...love this one especially!
Perfect! I'd like to see the whole sculpture.
My thought was also - so very Monte Carlo! Well done.
A grand post for the occasion! Superb, Jilly!
Belated greetings, from Nelson. Thanks for visit and comment!
