Archbishop Leopold Karl Graf von Kollonitsch Lipót - I found him in the park at the town hall of Vienna. In the moment I took the shot I knew, that I will post this today. I hope, you like it at least half as much as I do. If you want to know something about the carrier of the Archbishop, just follow this link but not before you left me a nice comment. Smile

A fine shot Sabine! I love the contrast of that gorgeous sky in the background, with the trees, and then the statue in front , it makes a great composition, good job!

Very nice image, composition and presentation, I like the way you darkened the image a little and the emphasis on the sculpture achieved by doing this. Next time force a flash, it would reflect from the statue and be too far from the trees. Good job.

Excellent shot of this proud looking fellow. Perfectly in focus and the background does not distract us from the main subject at all. I like his facial hair! lol Nice job Sabine!

I'm obeying orders, Sabine, and I haven't followed the link yet, although I usually like to do that first. I love the way the gree on the right shines, especially. Yup, that's me...looking at the trees first :) The capture of the statue is great, but you knew that already...now I'm off to follow that link.

This is great! I'm sure the Arch Bishop would be pleased with this portrait! The detail of this statue is amazing - and I really like the backdrop - those colors are wonderful! Diane

Great lighting on this Sabine, really makes him stand out from the background. A definite poser if I'm not mistaken! I thought they were supposed to be pious men;o)
Cheers,
Steve.
