Morris, Connecticut, USA. At the White Flower Farm, an amazing gardening center, this lion sculpture was staring down visitors. I took this with my new camera, a Canon 7D Mark II; lots of wow in this camera. This image is pretty much right out of the camera; only minor work in post-photo. My apologies for my absence from the site recently - life had thrown me a lot of time-consuming activities that have put photography on the back burner.

Similar shortage of time here...
Alas, now your new post and new camera ! Mine is new as well Panasonic Lumix DMC-SX3 or so :)
Yours seems to be "wow" indeed - great quality of image. For the contest? Fine eyes too.

Congrats on the new Canon, Thad. I'm sure you'll get much enjoyment as you learn the many features. This one's a beauty...and that is attributed mostly to you, then the camera. Bravo.

Great clarity and shadows gave really good look to the statue. Loved it perfect use of light.
