Hallo Achim,
das wirkt sehr gespenstisch. Diese merkwürdigen Silhouetten im Abendlicht. Da kannst Du mir lange erzählern, dass es Kräne sind.
Nein, herrlich aufgenommen und allemal den Blick wert.

Hi Achim

Good arrangement & capture of the 3 cranes, which add a musical rhythm to the compo. Excellent sharpness, colour & silhouettes. Tfs!

A very unusual sight from Barbados. The sunset colours provide a lovely background for the graphic industrial lines of the cranes.

Guten tag Achim
So these cranes are out of job! Why don't you draw 4 blades to each, so they could be used as windmills!
Very romantic appearance anyway because of sunset and beautiful reflexions.
