This may be your lowest but it inspired me to shoot one myself...
It's nowhere near as good as yours and my PP is way off... but it's my first attempt and I love the subject matter. All that from looking at yur lowest scoring image of 2009... score isn't everything!
There is something here this, particularly in b/w, that I really like - it's probably the angle of the compostion and I'm enjoying the noise. It all works together, including the frame, for an excellent image.
Yay for the Lensbaby! (I hope I am guessing right) If it is, I love the dreamy effect of this heavenly statue! The grain of the shot gives it all the more an ethereal look to it.
Earie feel to this with the grainy pp work and the subject matter of interest to go with it. Love the way it is soft at bottom and I think you succeeded in getting an old timeless feel of angelic being and the mysterie around it.
I know that many DPCers will likely not take well to a photographed statue but, I look at this as a piece of art. It has a majestic vantage point and the editing is what really makes this interesting above the angle it was shot on. 8
I like the use of the Lensbaby (I'm guessing) and grain in this - does a good job of giving a sense of life to a lifeless statue. (The statue's maker deserves a bit of credit for the lifelike eyes as well.)
