'Sea Beams' by Donald Urquhart
A public art work at Dysart harbour. The 30-foot high oak-pillars, in various shades of blue, are meant to match the colours of the sky throughout the year above Dysart beach, and represent the masts of the 19th century clippers which used to carry coal and salt from Dysart Harbour to Holland and Scandinavia. Overlooking the Firth of Forth, and Inchkeith, to Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh 20km distant.
Move on two centuries and moored oil rig platform legs came to mind.
