cynic! or realist
shame the left-hand bit of the pier is still there, it'd be a stronger photo without it (maybe)

Thank you kindly Liam. My thought was that its detachment and it appearing to drift away added to the sentiment of decline and fall.A little like Byzantium floating away from Rome as it crashed and burned.

Well, the detachment maybe does add to the sense of decline; i think you are right. i was thinking from a composition viewpoint Or maybe it's a metaphor for the UK falling apart from Europe, except in that case the main part should still be thriving so Byzantium and Rome is more apt.
