This was taken along the Earl's Path in the Belvedere House and Gardens. It was part of the Narnia tour where they placed different statues along the path. This statue was close to the Gothic wall.
The following were done on the photo:
* Converted from RAW
* Cropped
* Desaturated
* Resized
* Unsharpened mask
I am still not sure which one would have been better whether a desaturated statue only or the fully desaturated photo.

Hmmm.. I usually don't like photos of other people's art, but the background and title make me like it much more! Nice tones. I think an off-center positioning of the subject may appeal more to me, but good job overall.
