I had to smile when I first glanced at this image ... maybe 'cause the statue / subject has a slight smile, but I get a feeling of sadness or solitude too. I like the textures & the monotones balance out nicely. Very well done & best of luck in the contest.

I really like the detail on this sculpture - you captured it very well and the B+W works well. Good look in the contest!
