I like the over the shoulder capture but I think the background traffic detracts greatly!

I like the way you composed this one. It would make a great entry into the b&w contest.

i really like this one, and i really like that its black and white- it really adds to it. when i looked at it, i thought "nice family picture of those statues, i wish you would see more family's like that now adays that actually look like they are happy to see each other... they use to be like that in the past..." then it hit me! black and white was brilliant on this, because even tho it was taken in the present, it gives you that feel of the past family life that once was! (and now all we have to remember it is statues! i hope i made sense there for ya! i really like this!

I agree with .Visitor99 about the traffic.
Was a picture over the let shoulder possible without traffic?
I like this type of art/sculpture, it is so simple and so expressive.
Some cities have to much modern art on the street.
