New in the game - need feedback

[Gajda]

Hi i am new in the photo game and I need some feedback for my shots. I use a Niko D60. Here is my best shot so far. The motive is an sculpture named "Boy" from the museum Aros in Denmark.

Interesting; could you provide a link to an image (Please don't post images to which you don't hold rights) of the sculpture? This is definitely interesting, but without knowing what your starting point was, it's hard to give useful feedback.

Thanks for the reply tirediron. Here are some pictures of the sculpture.

Sorry, I misunderstood; your photograph is of the sculpture? I thought that this was your recreation of the sculpture. I think given what I read about it on that page, what I would find most interesting is an image which shows the scale of the piece. Your image is well done, but between the quality of the sculpture and your image, it's not immediately apparent (at least to me) that this wasn't actually an image of a real child.

omg at first I thought it was a super-manipulated portrait of a real person. I was about to say you've done pretty damn well for someone who is new.

I do like the lighting though. It's very clean.
