El Peine del Viento (comúnmente conocido como Peine del Viento o El Peine del Viento, y erróneamente como Peine de los Vientos) es un conjunto de esculturas de Eduardo Chillida, siendo probablemente su obra más importante y conocida.
Se encuentra situado en un extremo de la bahía de la Concha, al final de la playa de Ondarreta, en San Sebastián, País Vasco (España). Está compuesto por tres esculturas de acero, incrustadas en unas rocas que dan al mar Cantábrico, cuyas olas las azotan.
Chillida siguió trabajando en la serie Peine del Viento, que coincide en el aspecto formal con su colección de Estelas, y particularmente, con las dedicadas a Picasso, Allende y Neruda.
La obra fue finalizada en 1976. Además de las esculturas, se acondicionó una zona en los alrededores de las mismas con unas salidas de aire y agua que se abastecen de las olas que rompen contra las rocas y las esculturas.

another photo that i discovered from my archives. what was captured is the solid foundation of San Sebastian Church in Manila which is the only church in the Philippines that is made of steel that was prefabricated in and imported from Belgium.
according to wikipedia:
The Basilica Minore de San Sebastián, better known as San Sebastián Church, is a Roman Catholic minor basilica in Manila, the Philippines. It is the seat of the Parish of San Sebastian and the National Shrine of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel.
Completed in 1891, San Sebastián Church is noted for its architectural features. An example of the revival of Gothic architecture in the Philippines, it is the only all-steel church or basilica in Asia.[1] It has also been implausibly reputed to be the first prefabricated building in the world,[2] and more plausibly claimed as the only prefabricated steel church in the world.[3] In 2006, San Sebastian Church was included in the Tentative List for possible designation as a World Heritage Site. It was designated as a National Historical Landmark by the Philippine government in 1973.[4]
San Sebastián Church is under the care of The Order of the Augustinian Recollects, who also operate a college adjacent to the basilica. It is located at Plaza del Cármen, at the eastern end of Claro M. Recto Street, in Quiapo, Manila.[5]
