I had to stand on a pile of sand and try and hold the camera above a 7 ft Fence. Shadow is the Razor Wire on top of the fence!

Paul
Went to Annan to photgraph the Caroline, ex Pertinence, ended up going in a builders yard and standing on a mound of gravel overlooking the fence.
It's further to Annan from South Beach to South Harbour and my sandcastle was bigger than your sandcastle. Nah..
