Whilst I was on the beach at Redcar last week I was struck by the geometry of this structure on the beach, tripod-like (and I think indicating the landward end of the submerged pipeline which featured) and its industrial linkage with the steel works in the background. In between there is the most glorious sweep of the beach at Coatham leading out towards the South Gare of the River Tees. The wind was blowing a very low level storm of fine driven sand... I was fearful for the camera!

Thanks for looking and your comments if you have them, Mike.

Well spotted and captured, like the low angle of capture. Carol
... And a hat on at a very jaunty angle. That's what makes it work for me. Plus the softness of the blown sand.

Great shot love the colours. Lovely presentation of a lovely image

A first-class composition, Mike. The horizon is perfectly placed, the tripod marker also - and the cloud looks as if it could be steam emerging from a rather enigmatic funnel. Superb tones for a bright, windy and chilly Teesside day.

Looks like a character from the film Wall-E to me

Nice one, Mike. Wide-angle too. The large version shows the windblown sand.

Now I really like this. An offbeat quality to the image and great composition
Robert I'm both delighted and flattered by your award. Thank you!
Mike
