@Andres: Thank you, Andres.
I like the statue you chose with that rich costume and fierce attitude that looks almost comic! Good cropping,too! You left enough of the gold to avoid the white on white only!

Great detail in his armor. I would not want to meet him in a dark alley. He is a most imposing figure. Wonderful shot.
