Interesting statue made out of hard metal to depict a soft flower. What a contrast! . You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good luck!

A rare find!
Excellent choice of a unique subject.
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Sharply focused.
Fine floral features & wooden textures.

Subdued lighting.
Verdant overtone!
Good perspective & long depth of field...
Best of luck in the contest!

Thanks for sharing...

Excellent shot of this impressive statue in the Botanical Garden. I like the angle you used for this showing the sky peeping through the tree branches behind the statue. Very good lighting and focus showing a nice clear image. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

Weird, yet, interesting statue

still, the bright area around it distracts and makes it difficult to look at the main subject

thanks for sharing

    Thank you for your kind review and input.
    The bright area cannot being avoided because it is polished metal supposed to reflect in any light.

I love yard out, the more different and unique the more I like it. I like how the metal flower seems to be the center of the trees behind It gives a nice illusion. Colors are great, not to overbearing. This is a good piece!

Impressive picture of an impressive piece of art. Does it spin in the wind? Good entry for the contest - good luck. Color and lighting are nice. Good composition, framing, focus and dof. Thanks for sharing.

    It does not spin in the wind. The metal blades are 1 food high and 1 inch thick.

You still have quite a bit of light at that hour. A well composed shot with very sharp detail in the statue and great colors. Best of luck in the contest.

Very interesting statue of this flower, this has a sense of motion and is well photographed with good focus, the image is clear, well controlled exposure , colors and tones appear natural, this has an industrial feel, well presented, best to you in the contest!
