And that statue was definitely NOT there the first time, or I would have remembered! <br />@ Stine : a bad joke, that's what it is!<br />@ James: LOL! It had that effect on me, true!<br />@ moneythoughts : I think you are right as far as composition and balance are concerned the second photograph is better, I agree. I still don't like that statue, but it's a good thing we do not all like the same things. The world would be such a dull place!<br />@ Mar : Yup, that's a great observation. <br />@ Dianne : I think he's creepy.<br />@ kaye : I loved the closed gates better. <br />@ Nessa : ROFL!!! TRUE!!<br />@ Gattina : Absolutely!<br />@ Bill : Mother Nature did a much better job decorating this window. <br />@ Thom: That's what I hated so much about him, that smirk on his face. <br />@ VioletSky : It's a good thing we all like different things eh? <br />@ Betty : It came as a big surprise!<br />@ quilly : Less is more. <br />@ lisa : Yes, I missed it this time.

As for the stone piece of sculpture, it makes for an interesting contrast with the green field over his shoulder.
