What is that bright spot above the extended hand? A fire fly? I mean, what is it? I'm hoping this point of light isn't some famous statue feature that I haven't been aware of! :::blush:::

What is the bright spot in the center of the photo? Great shot.

Creative and risky choice in the framing of this image. The harsh light and shadow work well with the intensity of your message. I like that your subject moves off the right side of the frame, but there is a little too much negative space on the left. I know this was an artistic choice and I do like the idea of more negative space there than ususal, it just feel like a little too much so that it takes away from your main visual. Kudos on your courage to risk!

I can't quite tell what's in his hand, it would be funny if it was a T.V. Remote though.

Yeah, you damn pigeons! If ever I catch one of you sh**ting on my head... ;o)
Okay, let's talk serious. This statue definitely suggests authority, but the 'marks' on his head make him look too ridiculous to be impressive. And what's that blue spot? A star? That doesn't fit in there.

Love the composition of this one.

Um.... What is the blue light? Good use of negative space, but more depth-of-field on the statue, keeping it sharp, would help.
