i would have liked this cropped so i couldnt see the base or the concrete. that would have cemented the illusion that this was a person. great colors tho. might also benefit from a low radius high percentage unsharp mask. mag99

Awesome colors and composition. I personally disapprove (normally) of shooting other people's art, but for the purposes of PJ, I'm not counting that off. 8 nards656

Georgeous picture. Is that the ocean on the right behind the flowers? I would have loved to see a little more of that. Maybe a little higher angle. The ocean would have added authenticity to it. Great statue. Good focus and light. Nice crop. Good composition, execution needs a little ocean. Otherwise great photograph. PTL8

I would of cropped out the bottom cement, but I do like this. The sky and the red berries really make this a good-good shot. Nice job! Justine
