The life preservers were modelled after some that I breifly saw at a local sailing
club
a few months ago.  I'm not often around boats so I could be wrong in this respect. 
I've
left them red in the final version mostly because I'm lazy... and also because they
make
the image look even more like some experience from childhood.

The bright green at the bottom near the wood is supposed to be on top of the window -
much like canvas.  It is to cover up the glass which is under water.  Mind you this is
just my idea :)

Thanks for the comments,
