Andrew: This is a wonderful study and I think these street "vignettes" give us great opportunity to vision the same thing the person is "visioning". Many times it is a great painting or a persona whatever. I would love to have seen this statue away from the people s/he is representing a respite from. Maybe shooting from below to get the trees and sky but no crowd. I saw one in Rome who was marvelous but so positioned it was impossible to shoot w/o the crowds. Great job.

not too worried about the hands, in as much as it was a trade off between there being more foliage that out of focus people passing by and her face being in the bottom left corner of the upper right sixth of the frame. I was trying to get a feeling of her being above the street. To maintain this composition and keep her hands in shot I had to pull back and start to loose the feeling of height and the low 'horizon' created by the bottom of the trees. She was actually sitting on a platform so she was quite high up. I always have a UV filter on the lens for protection more than anything and I went into auto pilot whilst typing, its just a circ pol used for this shot!

The pose of the upper body - especially the position of the arms - makes me wonder whether she was sitting or standing. The photo doesn't give me the answer, which may be perceived both as a strength and as a weakness, depending on how you look at it. Question one: are you not bothered by the partially cropped-off hands? Question two: why the UV filter?
