 Statue of Sherlock Holmes taken outside the Conan Doyle pub in Edinburgh. All I did was change it to B&W and increase the brightness.

Thanks for taking the time to vote and comment on my very first attempt at digital photography. To finish ahead of 49 others is very encouraging.

Fits the challenge but it appears washed out to me. The brightness in the back is really glaring on my monitor and the statue is a very dull grey. I do like the angle of the shot, Sherlock Holmes was a very inposing figure :) A 4 to start

Nice image, but I this doesn't seem to be a "still life" to me.

Watson, the 7 percent solution would be good.
Love this shot because I love Sherlock Holmes, and it's a good shot. This must be in England. 12 Baker Street? LOL Wonderful to see the old fella. He just looks still here, but his mind is very active.
