It feels like this picture doesnt relly fit in the frame I have a feeling like its falling or something, mabey you could have cropped out a bit from the rifght side and mabey have it more vertical, the statue is a little overexposured too

This is very noisy, poorly lit, very little detail, a bit un-interesting and tilted. Not sure it qualifies as a still life either.

A program like neat image would help remove the graininess of this image.

Sorry about the comment yesterday, bad day. Your image does meet many of the qualifications for still life. It does need cropped, I would take it right up to the statue, which is over exposed and blown out. Horizon lines don't always have to be level but I think it would help in this case. I will re-rate it.

Very good idea and I like the title. Glad you explained who, I would have never know :) The statue is well lit but the distance in the shot is too much. The cropping could be tighter, leaving only the tower and the statue. The noise in the image is also very distracting. A 4

if this were much much closer on the statue it might have worked as a still life, but as it is right now it doesn't do it. also, there appears to be a fair ammount of digital noise/pixelation happening in the sky.
