In Camera ... Postcard AG45

This was a very windy clear day in October, days like this are not usually good for sunsets as there are not enough dust particles in the air to refract the light but I decided to go down to the beach just in case. The strong, chilly north westerly was keeping the air clear and the beach deserted - just me and the iron men. The clarity of the air and the clean wide open space resulted in my capturing this image which I feel captures the essence of the sculpture, portraying the insignificance of man against the wide open spaces of nature.
The shot is actually a panorama of two images joined together which helps give a wider  almost three dimensional feel to the landscape, the camera on a tripod, essential in low light and windy conditions.
