Lovely! I like the crane as well... Just how big are the sea horse and crane?

Interesting perspective. Having spent quite a bit of time around this kind of sea going container, I was struck by the vivid colors of the individual boxes. My experience was that they only looked that colorful when new. Did you find a large stack of new ones, digitally manipulate the colors or use plastic scale models to force the perspective? Inquiring mind wants to know.

the horse is life size the containers are scaled down models... and the crane...also:the point of view was choosen to create the illusion that it was a real one in the background ;)

I thought exactly the same thing as Gary, a horse-shaped thing in the foreground and containers in the background; then for a while I thought it was an enormous container ship that was somehow shaped like a horse -- then I read the comment and everything became clear. Great shot!

The illusion of scale is well conveyed from this angle. Great colours too. Well done!
