 Ok, well I was hoping to score a bit better then this but as I keep looking at my enty I see all the flaws, specifically the over processed edges. I am still learning how to do pp so onward and upward we go.

GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB

You created some nice soft, yet warm tones in this image.

On composition, my suggestion would be to either include more of the pedestal on which your statue sits, or none of it. There is a distracting white line at the bottom edge, so in this instance, you might consider cropping at the kneeling line.

Overall, finding a little more area for sharper focus would give this image a little 'pop'. Also, to give the statue more modeling you might think about adjusting the lighting on it with a reflector or the like, if the Sun isn't cooperating.

Keep on trying and yes, it gets easier as you learn the process of post-processing.
