 I found this at the state capitol honoring Paramedics. It had a sign under the foot that I originally cropped out. It's a copper sculpture mounted on a brushed copper background. Not much was done for editing. Turned it black and white and played with the lighting a bit.

I personally like how it turned out, reminds me of something you'd see out of a magazine in the 1950s.

The background (central light radiating outwards) and the shadows (strong light from viewer's left) are incongruent. Otherwise, this is a very nice picture.
