Two more different aspects of the model at the Eden Project. Both full frame, not cropped, and I admit to altering the backgrounds.
This was assembled using 3.3 tonnes of carefully selected WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) which reflects the amount of WEEE that an average person living in the UK will throw away in their lifetime.
V1: 1/70sec @ f4, ISO200, +0.3stepEv, 33mmFL, AP.
V2: 1/150sec @ f7.1, ISO100, -0.7stepEv, 9mmFL, AP.

Reminds me very much of Short Circuit. I love version 1, if the subject had been something from nature we could have called it a great landscape with a lovely sky. Not sure what to call this - sculpturescape? Robotscape? But whatever it is, it looks really good!
Thought-provoking is the word, especially when portrayed thus. You have made V2 look almost tragic, which I suppose augments the sculptor's intention.

Suitably scary plus strangely poignant, it's a monster that's suffering. V1 gives the more menacing aspect, and the greater sense of pain for me.
Moira
Thanks so much for your interest.
His teeth are computer mouses/mice (?).
DAVE: I would estimate that he is about 20-25ft tall, certainly not wee at all, lol.
Two real belters, he looks like a robot from the Transformer films
What an amazing piece of scupture, Pamela, excellently captured and processed.

I really liked your earlier shots of this scuplture but these are even better, the sky is stunning and a perfect backdrop to this amazing piece of artwork.
I love this WEEE man Pamela - your images make me want to go see him.
You have captured some fabulous detail in V1 - the sky suits - cracking image.
V2 love the skyward look - brought some 'Genesis' lyrics to mind :-
Watcher of the skies watcher of all
His is a world alone no world is his own.
These two images will have to share my User Award Pamela.
Brian.
Both superb Pamela, lovely detail and so deserving of the fine comments and awards,
Geoff.
Your images invoke a sense of struggle to be alive in an in-animate object - that says so much for the sculpter, but even more that you have captured the angst in its expression so clearly. And I agree - the background is just right.
David
Two fantastic images, beautiful in a way yet scary when you think of the reasoning behind the sculpture, very well captured.
Hugh
An interesting sculpture with a message. Great photography.
Phil.
What an interesting "sculpture"! Great, sharp images - I think your backgrounds enchance the whole thing

It has been interesting reading your comments, thankyou all so much.
Thanks, David, for the user award, I have never received two on a photo before, so chuffed.
Thankyou David, costas, Sandra, Brian, Greg and Marie.
