In the over 160 years since this great statue was erected in New Orleans, it has been witness to war, poverty, devastation, re-building, discrimination and reconciliation.

Nice silhouette & sunset. CHOSSID · 2012-07-02: 10:12

Love this sky in this capture! (What a burden to have to watch all these situations, I'm glad I'm not a statue) Ryana · 2012-07-02: 15:00

Well, I always think that statue/sculpture shots are boring....UNLESS, they are photographed to somehow incorporate a mood or are part of or somehow incorporate the beauty and interest around them. This is a perfect example of "UNLESS," Jeff! Haha...did that make sense? lookagain · 2012-07-02: 17:37
