Coffee and Cake with a view of the Kelpies, Helix Park, Falkirk,

They are largest equine sculpture in the world. Unveiled in April 2014, these 30-metre high horse-head sculptures situated in Helix Park are a monument to Scotland’s horse-powered industrial heritage.

HBM and a happy new week ☆☆☆
8 months ago.
Kayleigh club has added
A kelpie, or water kelpie (Scottish Gaelic: Each-Uisge), is a shape-shifting spirit inhabiting lochs in Irish and Scottish folklore. It is usually described as a grey or white horse-like creature, able to adopt human form. Some accounts state that the kelpie retains its hooves when appearing as a human.

Hi Roger
A wonderful and interesting picture, which I like very much!
Very nice composition with great colours, and a place I recognise. I was there in 2009, but strangely only one picture here on ipernity (which you have already seen). Perhaps I should dig a few more out of the archives!.
Best Wishes, Happy Monday, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!
