Japanalia from Yokohama, JapanI 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! 12 May 2008 1:01pm @Japanalia: A great comment. thank you, Gabriela.

I like to think he is guarding that gold and comes to life if it is threatened! Marion from Nanaimo, BC, CanadaGreat detail in his armor. I would not want to meet him in a dark alley. He is a most imposing figure. Wonderful shot. 12 May 2008 2:48pm @Marion: Thank you, Marion. A pretty fierce character he appears.

You caught the detail and the careful composition with him under thegold is very nice. 12 May 2008 2:53pm @Michael Rawluk: Thanks so much, Michael.
