Since a few of you are wondering, this is a piece of art in Sydney near the Rocks district, though I'm not entirely sure of it's origins.

Nice colour saturation and contrast. I haven't seen this one - I wonder if it's a permanent installation?

Did their seatbelts help?

I love this sculpture in Sydney. Parked near it when in Sydney last and visiting The Rocks. There's a lot here in this image that takes the viewer away from the subject, to the detriment of the image. Perhaps a shallower DOF might have helped, or a different angle to eliminate some of the objects in the background. I like the details and the colours you've got with the capture and processing.

Not voting yet... will come back later.
