Great series. I like them all for different reasons:

1: A prayer for all the lost seamen. Maybe the face of the statue could have been above the sea level. Smile

2: The calmness of the statue in beautiful sunlight with unsharp cliff and ocean in the back gives a perfect image of what the builders of the statue intended.

3. A perfect play of showing details in front and having an area in the back that could have the same structure in detail. I like this one a lot.

4. and 5.: Just nice. Wanting me to be there.

6. Nice geometry. Like it.

But with 7. it rocks. Same foreground, same clouds - but they tell a different story. A guy with his head in the clouds - looking down. Stunning picture, mate!
