A bronze statue in Downtown Syracuse. The child is holding onto an old fire fighters wagon with horses. (I wanted to put this into the current contest for B+W but could not find the gallery.) Hope you like it.

I like the tonal quality on this, especially the division left and right of the woman's head, smooth on one side, rough on the other. Nice composition.

Please stop by my gallery and take a look at my take on God's creation.

I don't think there is an ongoing contest yet, Jay, but if there was, this would be a very fine entry. I love the deep contrasts. I can see that fire wagon very well. Nice work on this and I really like the statue a great deal.

Beautiful piece of work here Jay & your presentation is outstanding. Love the lighting upon & surrounding the statue & the outer vignette works well as it appears to bring out the fine features of the statue. I like your choice of a B & W too ... faves.
