Another shot from the Columbus Circle statues. I think this one stands out better from the background, yes? (It seems I did use this statue in a PAD before, but this is different. HERE's the earlier one.

Nikon D70 ,Nikkor 85mm f/1.8D AF
1/8000s f/1.8 at 85.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

This stands out so clearly you feel you could slip behind it! Nice work.

Jeff nailed it!
Very compelling image Mark.

Lovely colors, but especially compelling composition. Jeanne's right; the "figurehead" of a ship, I think it's called. That's just what it looks like here. And the way you've composed it, removing other parts of the monument as distractions, makes this angel look like she's rushing into the air in flight, against a riveting blue sky. Really well done.

Very cool Mark..... Love the blue background really sets off the whites.
