 A statue that I shot for the cliche challenge way back when. I redid it just before the rain came. I used the paint with light technique but with a very fast shutter speed (for the technique). I chose this one because of the effect of the lights was a little surreal and that might be that something extra. With my luck, this will do better than my shadows picture that I really really love.

Nice job with the lighting on this shot.

Le Pieta? I think Boticelli does indeed make Mary look graceful here. And you capture that grace quite well. I'm not sure what those ghostly figures are above Jesus' face, but I like your lighting here a lot.

The idea of a light on him is an excellent idea as is the darkness all around. Really focuses on the important part of the statue. Did you try placing a light behind his head. I think you might be able to get a halo effect that way. I'm sorry, but there is something on Mary's face and it makes it look like she has a mustache.

This is a nice shot but the lighting could have been a lot better...too harsh

Wonderful photo. Wish the light was not quite as strong on the face, but still rated high by me. Great job!
