National Constitution Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Signers Hall contains life size bronze statues of all of the signers of the US Constitution. At age 79 and in ill-health, Benjamin Franklin attended the Constitution Convention meetings faithfully, adding his wisdom to the dialog. (The statues were created in EIS Studios in Brooklyn, NY. They researched historical documents in the designs.)

I've not been posting lately, but have checked in on Caedes with some frequency. My dad, age 91, has had some health issues (and has recovered), I had some major projects to complete on my old house and some volunteer work that took lots of time.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
Well it sure is nice to see you back, and I'm happy to hear that your dad is doing much better, and you got your projects done. Thad, this has very good coloring, and good details. tigs=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
I've read your additional comment Thad, and appreciate that you've still found the time to provide us with a new contribution. Good to hear that your old dad has recovered!
Your 'portrait' of the bronze Benjamin Franklin is perfectly taken. It's like that we still can hear his wise words.
Very well done!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

My Mom turns 91 in a few months Thad so I hear you on that - glad he's doing better. Love the wonderful details in this sculpture particularly the hair and face.

Sorry to read about your father, Thad.. glad to know that he is doing better.
And yes.. real life does some times get in the way, doesn't it?
That said..
Very nice shot.
Like the DOF you employed. Good good detail and clarity and you and your camera handled the specular reflections well (i.e lighting conditions and subject matter).
Last, but certainly not least..
Thanks for sharing this one with us.
(p.s. Good good to see some images from you again.)
