Distortion seems a bit over whelming...

Good low perspective to make it look like the monument is even taller than it is. Nice job keeping any distracting elements out of the background.

The colour through this is great. The reds through the bricks against the blue does contrast well, and the statue does stand out well against the sky.........The angle does ensure that his name is also a main part of the image, which helps us identify him, rather than it being just another horse statue.
Colour noise though is apparent in the upper area of the image which needs some attention. The image is very centered and the crop is pretty tight.
But a good image and amoung the better entries I have seen.
