 Photographer’s Notes
This was taken in the Palazzo Vechio in Florence Italy. Firstly I think it’s a stunning sculpture in black marble. Secondly, it is displayed in a dimly lit room with natural lighting through a window to the side which creates very nice highlights. Maybe this will live up to the low key challenge theme well. But in any event, I like the sculpture and the way I have captured it.
