This is a bronze statue of the last mayor of Temple Terrace, Fl. After many many years of negotiating with several developers to remodel the downtown area to a more modern look, work finally started a couple years ago, but the deal fell through right in the middle of development with no signs of completion. So, here's an insanely vain statue of the mayor with the words engraved on the plaque "Our dream became a reality!" All this admist lots overgrown with weeds and more than half the project uncompleted! Some dream!

It does seem rather grandiose for it's surroundings. I don't find it strange that the mayor apparently made sure that this statue was finished first. Now you know where his priorities really were! However, this is a wonderful shot Alex. The lighting is great and the colors are lovely. I'll bet Florida is a beautiful place to be:)
