Nice image. love the drops of water that bring life to an otherwise "dry" statue. Appears appropriately heroic!

I tend not to like photos of sculptures. But this photo is definitely its own statement separate from the sculpture. 7

A picture of a statue, with shadows burnt out as well as the higlits. + raindrops on the lens. Not doing much for me...

Ok, there is a raging debte about people's voting habits at the moment, so i will attempt to give a detailed comment with my vote:

portrait challenge and here we have a monument (in ottawa? in front of the parliament blg?). DOesn't meet cahllenge in my view. BUt the shot is great. Good composition. nice contrasts. glare is a bit annoying so i'll give you a 5 despite the DNMC

I guess you will be knocked back on portrait as it look like a statue, but even for a statue it doesn’t seem to have much detail. Best of Luck 3
