Statue View

Posted by Sean Bailey (Phoenixville, United States) on 20 January 2007 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

This is one of the few evening shots I've been able to get. This statue overlooks a long rolling hill that leads into the woods. Not a bad view for a statue.

Sweet negative space mate...Dawn or dusk?? Either way it's impressive. I like how the trees branches point to the statue...so the picture draws my eyes around the picture alot. Great work. Have you thought about cropping up to around the top of the branches?? I've been cropping a lot of my sky photos and I think it has a pretty good effect.

A very...very impressive shot Sean. The orange sky is beautiful in the distance and compliments the silhouette perfectly. Really adds depth to the scene. Super!

Nice silhouette of the statue and colors in the sky. Composition makes the horsemen look rather heroic. I don't know if I care for the tree branches. IMO, simplicity is always preferable. The tree branches seem to clutter the image just a bit.

General Mad Anthony Wayne has a great view. Wonderful shot. Colour Blind: my guess is this shot was taken at dusk as I believe that view is toward the west, if I remember correctly.
