Hello Ryno,
such an unusual subject suits your choice of BW very well.
Well seen and presented.
Best wishes Gladys.

This is a really stark, moody and well taken shot, Ryno - not sure why it's lacking in comments. You found a great subject; there's all sorts of interesting details to work with here. Between the look carved onto the face, the missing wing, and the deep shadows, the statue really comes to life. Add to that the surroundings, with the crow perched atop it and the flier stuck to it next to the imposing fence, this could easily be a still from a horror movie as well. Very well seen and captured.
