I took this photo in front of my house on the weekend in a small garden. I took this with my Nikon D5100. I had to crop it down and darken the background significantly using layers.

I also saw some parts that jutted out and broke out St. Francis's shape. I went in and painted each block to clean up the outside. I did have some issues with the original. I need to spend m

I really like this picture. The darkness surrounding the statue give it a mysterious feel as well as acting as a contrasting agent in focusing the viewer's eye on the main point of the picture, the statue. The pose of the statue is also a very calming and gentle pose which overall adds to the picture.
I absolutely love this photo. The way the shadow hits the statue is calming and almost nostalgic from the time that it was built and St. Francis was alive. You did a great job with this one; bravo.
