 This is one of a pair of lions flanking the entry path to one of the local fraternity houses. I saw them while taking my daughter to her haircut this morning. Had to stop on the way back home and snap a few. This is the result.

Oh, and I managed to get a square crop in too ;o)

Very nice detail. I like how the dark trees in the background provide enough contrast to make the lion's face pop. Nice job.

Looks great in b&w, love the texture!
It almost looks like maybe you selected the front lion and blurred the back one a bit? I bet just the front lion alone would look cool on a black background :-)

The tones are great on the lion, very pleasing. It's just a wee shame about the the one in the background. ;-Þ

Nice choice of subject. I like playing with light on statues. The B/W is good.
