This is a huge sculpture of an alien from War of the Worlds and is located in Woking in the UK where HG Wells was born (that, the Mclaren F1 team and Paul Weller are the towns only claims to fame). The angle was chosen to give a sense of scale and I was attempting to make the image look like a composite by excluding any reference to every day life such as people walking around. Appart from a tweak of the curves and upping the contrast the image is un-manipulated.
Very good shot Andrew, much better than the repost. I wasn't into photography when I was living in Woking, but seeing this makes me wanna go back and take a shot of this. Really good angle!
