Dublin urban landscape or environmental portrait?

Dusk was falling when I came across this scene last week, after shooting some environmental portraits in Dublin city centre. The way the street light caught the "Dublin Docker" against the backdrop of some of the city's icons really appealed to me.

"The Linesman" - to give it its proper name - by Dony MacManus has long been one of my favourite pieces of public art in Dublin. Approaching an urban scene with the mindset of an environmental portrait was new for me and might just be habit forming!
