Great shots. The nearest I have been to one is here in Plymouth......






IIRC it's there to remember Rhino bones found in a nearby cave/quarry whatever....

2. I had to 'salvage' this pic a bit;

As for number 3: yes, the iron post is a distraction. I don't feel it adds anything to the composition. Was it unavoidable?

I agree with the comments.
Don't be afraid to crop to a different shape if need be
Here is what I've done - hope you don't mind ?

No problem, yeah it is avoidable and I have other shots without the pole, also an abstract one taken a while back close up through the 'eye' of the 'needle' / hole! thanks for the comments peeps.
