The Park of bronze sculptures begins with a wagon train heading west, causing a heard of bison to stampede. The bison emerge onto Dodge Street where they flush a flock of Canada geese. The geese take flight and conclude with their flying into the First National Tower. Together, Pioneer Courage and Spirit of Nebraska's Wilderness parks consist of more than 100 individual bronze pieces integrated within an urban environment that covers more than six city blocks. Individual sculpture pieces are 1.25 times life size and range in weight from 400 pounds to six tons.

It's my post processing and I agree 100%. Wanted some background for context so I looked for something to include when I shot - but then the photo was hopelessly busy IMO so I tried to fix that. Wrong :(

I'm not sure if it is your post processing, but the building is really blurry and it detracts from an otherwise interesting image.

Um, what's with the pp'g? I'm guessing you were trying to blur the background?

That odd background glow is distracting.
