Liverpool in the distance

Nice contrast between the beach and the urban landscape in the background. Love the windmills there: Something to highlight nature and a means of power generation that, unusually, doesn't harm nature.

A strong contrast between the unpopulated beach and the marks of the new modern world in the far background. Which one to choose ?!

@Japanalia: Maybe somewhere in between... ? ;)

Interesting skyline! I didn't know that Liverpool is so close to the sea.
The city apperas very futuristic here, maybe because of the wind generators.

@grapf: Yes, Liverpool is situated on the famous River Mersey that opens into the Irish Sea. Liverpool was once a world harbour trading goods and slaves, and many people left this port as migrants to go to the New world (America). In fact the Iron men in the previous pictures symbolically represents all the people that emigrated from Liverpool.

Amazing to discover what's around... ecologic but not so poetic. The whole thing is really surreal in a sense.

A fine shot of these wind turbines with the city beyond. The turbines are always so deceptively large.

So great. I love that! The landscape of industry, held off by that long stretch of beach in the foreground. Just excellent.

It's good to see the Iron Men still watching and the wind turbines right at the edge of the city. What is that control tower like structure; harbor related? I enjoy this fine composition a lot.

@Steve Rice: Yes Steve, I'm sure this must belong to the Coastguard it's right on the open sea.
Thea from Leeuwarden, Netherlands
