Those trees are extremely distracting. I would have corpped them off for a much tighter shot that draws attention to the statue.

good idea, but the tree on the bottom right is distracting.

Stunning. I love the way the green leaves stand out vividly against the grey stone. The clouds in the sky complement the statue perfectly. Very well done. 10 - lisae

Would work even better without the tree in the lower right. Nice shot.
09/20/2002 03:02:00 PM
Would have been better with more background trees or fewer, either way...

poor implementation of theme, nice pic discounting the trees in the corners which pull you away from the subject

I love the statue, just wish I could see more of its detail. Good choice in the sky as the background but you may want to crop out the tree head in the lower right. It's distracting from your objective

This is a great shot. I like the peaceful feeling of it. If you could have only got out the trees in the 2 corners. 8

I like the green against the gray statue, with the sky background. I'd have liked to see more blue in the sky, but its not a dealwrecker. 6 -lennier

Excellent... I wish the foliage in both corners wasnt there though.

Composition: This does not need all that space on the right 6
Lighting: good perhaps a bit more on the face or some fill in flash for the back lighting 6
Appeal:6, Total Rating 6 Sulamk

Nice subject,and meets the challenge. Could use more light on the face to reveal more detail. Good luck in the challenge...it's a tough one! Grayce aka Gracious

Nice shot, but could of done without the tree on the right. Score 6 Justine.

Without the trees impeding the cloud space this would have been a master shot scoring 10+++… I think that even though the space invasion is small, the impact of the shot is reduced from superb to very good or just nice. Don't get me wrong, I really like the shot, but crop it down and take another look – I think you'll be surprised… (8)

only thing is the tree on the bottom right--need to crop it out--good use of statue--8bobgaither

civil war memorial........ or grave yard?
09/16/2002 04:00:00 AM
pretty, but i think the colors could be a bit more vibrant
09/16/2002 12:48:00 AM
Could you have taken this shot at an angle (e.g. 45 deg. to the left)? I think it would have eliminated the tree & bush, as well as presented the subject in a more interesting manner.
