Well, over time the others will be gone and only the name will be left. A really neat shot, good focus/dof, framed and exposure as the waves roll in on the beach. Good work.

Fantastic way to frame this story, grand initial impact. The depth of field beautifully done, angle of the shot is creative. The gently rolling waves and the angle of the shoreline nice capture. Well focused with great detail. Thanks for sharing.

A very nice perspective on these guys. The light is especially nice. I suspect there is also a great shot near sunset? Really nice technicals and overall very pleasing. Cheers, James.

Thanks James - apparently best time is 1.5 hours after sunrise, unfortunately there was hardly any sun the morning we were there and we arrived about 2 hours after sunrise. Was still improvement on my 2007 photography with point and shoot :) Mary

What a beautiful site to behold, and so sad that they are crumbling away. Will look so bare when they are all gone. Great composition and love that you shared some information about them, thank you for sharing :)

Some of them must be weakened already by the forces of nature...
But these remaining eight vertical structures are really adorable sculptures that stand the test of time.
A rare find! An interesting initial impact. A great initial impact. Nice interesting subject. Excellent POV & DOF...Harmonious colors. Impressive lighting, focusing & framing.
Thanks for sharing...
