Another from Lincoln

[GfK]

Came across this 'oddity'. Giant statue thing, no idea what its all about, but anyway...

Wonder who designs all these oddities.. almost as strange as the giant broccolli in Doncaster town centre!

Looks very good, I think you definately captured it from the most interesting angle. Cant imagine it would look quite soo dramatic from any other view.

Like the composition - the way it leads into the shot from the corner, cutting across and then meeting another subject.

Thanks for sharing:thumb:

Very well caught GfK ... agree with Warspite !

Personally not sure about the edge of building bottom right ... would look heaps cleaner cloned or cropped out imo ? Without losing the effect of the rest of the shot though !

TFS...

Personally not sure about the edge of building bottom rightI don't like to Photoshop stuff out unless its absolutely necessary, and I stood looking at this shot through the viewfinder for several minutes before I actually took it, for exactly this reason.

This thing actually bridges a canal, though, so I couldn't really get a better angle without falling in.

I agree with Venomator.

There is a better crop to be had here.
Still a great shot, and :thumb: for getting it.

Canals aren't usually that deep, so you could have gone for that better angle.:D

I like it, but yep - get that buildng cloned out. you're a crap cloner anyway so you need the practice. :D

Definately improved it (agree about chopping shots unless necessary - but in this case I think its worth it).

Of course it was already a good shot to start with:thumb:

Agreed about photoshopping things out unless absolutely necessary. I do like the shot though. Great.

It does look much better with the building cloned out!

[Venomator]

Now that is an improvement GfK ... showed CT you ain't that crap at cloning anyways !

Lovely piece and so much better for the extra effort - I understand your reluctance but sometimes you just gotta !
