This sculpture in a friend's garden is crafted from our locally quarried limestone, widely used for building purposes and very popular for carving. Perhaps she is contemplating a few New Years Resolutions :)

I think maybe she is crying too - lovely statue though. I have one on my fireplace which was made by a local student - I posted it earlier - see here . ...besides the statue what I love here is the flowers - how I long for Spring again, my favourite season! lovely photograph Lyn!

What a beautiful place, and just a lovely composition Eve. I think she might be daydreaming about her love, and the fragrance of the flowers adds to the atmosphere. In these surroundings could you think of anything else? May you have a pleasant day Eve. Dwight.

My guess is she is a little embarrassed sitting among all those pretty flowers ... without a stitch on ... and knowing a wonderful photographer will be posting her picture for all the world to see. She needn't have been concerned because you've done a beautiful job of presenting her as you have. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVE!

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

What a beautiful capture Eve. I also got the impression of crying, I love her lines and the contrast between her and the flowers around her. What a thought provoking picture. This is going into my faves. x
