Sir Walter Raleigh

Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted something here, but now that I have the time here's a shot of a statue of Sir Walter Raleigh from outside the convention center in downtown Raleigh. Comments would be appreciated!

I don't understand this. What are you trying to show?

You've basically just taken a snapshot of a snapshot. If you're going to photograph a statue, there generally needs to be something else to it: and interesting forced perspective, creative framing, something, anything. What you have here is no different than if you took a picture of a picture. Sorry... just trying to help.

Technical-wise, the highlights are all blown out, but the focus is good.

Thanks, I'll make sure to keep that in mind for the future
