I'm probably going to hear it about the supports on the front but I'm not very good at photoshopping so I left those in.
This is a large weightlifter outside the York Barbell company - and can be seen spinning from I-83.
I always knew we were nearing home when I saw the spinning barbell man.
Sharpened, increased brightness, contrast and saturation. Cloned out the support on the butt of the figure (that one looked more disturbing than the others from this angle). Resized and added border.

I realize this is a landmark challenge, so the idea of taking pictures of sculptures has to be relaxed some for this challenge; however, I feel like this is a flat representation of someone elses art. I think it needed a more dramatic angle or more dramatic lighting to make it stand out. Good luck.
Composition: 7, If possible I would like to have something in the shot for a size comparison.

Overall Calculated Average Score: 8, Interesting but lacking in descriptive subject matter. See composition.
Very interesting subject. Makes me want to see what it's attached too. You picked a great time to shoot the display, a very warm look to the subject makes it interesting.
