Interesting subject well captured, unfortunatly the weather wasn’t your friend on the day you took this shot, with that dull blue sky. Would have been tempted to increase the saturation of the blue tones using the hue/saturation option in a photo-editing package if you have one.

That must be quite impressive in person. It's interesting that, as photographed, it's really impossible to tell if this is a 50-foot tall statue or a tabletop piece! I'm not sure if that ambiguity is useful in the context if this challenge.

A beautifully taken image.
And yet I feel the title is very detrimental. Far better (in my opinion) to put only the title of the monument, and add, at most, the name of the country. People can look up the significance if they wish.
I certainly don't think it's helpful to add the height - it seems to me like an instruction to the viewer on how to "see" the image.
That said, it's an attractive image, nice lighting and composition.

Now this is an interesting monument. Gold always makes for a good statue. The title is way too long though.

This is a great shot. I love the color of the sky in cintrast to the monument's brightness. Good luck.

Wow,, what an outstanding rendering of an incredibly moving memorial. This incident is one of those that is little known outside of Europe. Thank you for entering a very moving image. 9

this off-center might be a little too much but the textures and the light are very nice
