Howdy from the Critique Club!
I have to start off saying what I said in my comment during the challenge..."Love this image. Can't imagine what it must be like in "real life." Good photo; colors are crisp and focus is sharp. Well done." I still feel this way!
Compositionally, the image nearly fills the frame. The angle of the sculpture adds a lot...glad you captured it from the side so we could see the handle as well. I wonder what other angles might work as well...maybe from ground level up or something unusual like that.
The colors are vibrant and work well together. Great work for a shot probably taken during the bright part of the day. I'd love to see how it looks in beautiful "golden hour" lighting...if it adds any more drama to it or not.
The clouds are visible, but I bet a touch of dodging/burning would really bring out some of the details in the cloud patterns, as well as a bit of leveling or dodging in the darkest parts of the trees.
Overall, it's a great image with many positive attributes and some points upon which improvements could be made. I have enjoyed taking a closer look at this picture. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me...I'm learning too!!!!

They really need to put a giant ink pad next to this sculpture. 10 |

Quite unusual, the image does'nt really stand out, but the subject does. |

That's certainly an impressive sculpture but I think the wow factor comes from the artist's creativity rather than yours. |

That is a neat sculpture, I was about to type here that you'd flipped/mirrored the image, then I reaslised what the big read thing was.. Well framed, and the exposure great for an object in shadow on a bright day. |

Is that in Cleveland? I recognize it, but I'm not sure from where! :) I'm thinking I've seen this near the stadium / Rock Hall area... |

Cleveland's giant stamp. A very good subject for this challenge. 7 |

Nice, clear shot. I like the way you have captured the highlights of the sky and the contrast with the tree. This looks strangely familiar - I just can't place where I have seen a similar photo before. |
