Thank you guys for your comments. This is DSC00027 in my H5, that is the 27th shot taken with my first camera. I've just bought it a few minutes earlier in a store at Michigan Ave. After some tens of thousands of shots later, it is still one of my all time favorites.

Inframan, this sculpture is really amazing. It's so smooth and well polished that it looks like a giant drop of liquid mercury!

Bill, I also like the posing and positioning of people in the scenery, but that was pure luck! ;-)

JolieO, yes, that's me, alone, close to the center of the reflex. I was far closer than it looks like! =)

This is a great shot. Is that you in the back?

Well captured. I love the colours and clarity and it looks like you got everyone to pose for the shot.
