NIGHT OF THE KELPIES by kenny barker on Flickr.

“Construction has been completed on Scotland’s newest landmark, two 100ft-tall horse head sculptures, called The Kelpies.”

“The dramatic horse heads are made of 600 tonnes of steel and can be seen from the M9 motorway in Falkirk. Glasgow artist Andy Scott was inspired by the tradition of working Shire horses in Scotland which used to pull barges along canals and worked in the fields where The Kelpies now stand.” - Kenneth Barker
