A picture I took of the sun shining through one of the enormous Kelpies.
Since this seems to have gathered some interest… Bonus photos.
ARTAXXXXXXXXXXX!!!
Was driving to Stirling for the first time at like 5.30am, had no idea these things existed. Came around the bend and they appeared from behind the trees, had me questioning if I was fully awake or not for a moment.
Oh no I’m not falling for this one again. I know there’s a bunch of Greek dudes in there
Actually it has a large climbing wall inside it so it is probably full of people at some points of the day
Not that there’s anything wrong with that
Fuck, I’d pay extra.
Did Children in Need inspire you to post this by any chance??
Not been watching it. Why?
Ahh they were shown on it last night
I’ve been here! Beautiful.
This is definitely material for evilbuildings@lemmy.world
Maybe rather with a picture like this:
But also, have you read up on what Kelpies are? Worth reading if you think this looks evil.
An Australian dog breed doesn’t strike me as evil. :)
Funny enough, I had somehow never encountered the word until I first saw these statues online.
What, why is a dog breed named Kelpie?
Can confirm that the dog breed is not evil. My dad had an Australian Kelpie and he was a loving goofball. Tried to herd cows but they did not care one bit. :)
Pff, that doesn’t even look like kelp
Have you taken similar stunning pictures of the Falkirk Wheel while you’ve been there?
Oddly enough…
Now that is an amazing closeup!
We were in a narrow boat in one of the gondolas as it rotated us up.
That’s gorgeous. The randomness of the tiles makes the structural framework difficult to immediately pick out. And the slight trypophobia from the holes is so unsettling. What a cool idea and incredible execution.
It looks like what happens to bosses in Ocarina of Time after you defeat them.
