[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This handsome woman was standing guard over an interesting building in Firenze (Florence), Italy. I believe the style of architectural trim was Egyptian. Whatever it was it had to be somewhat exotic with these women with multiple breasts protecting it.

If anyone has insights about sizing, I would appreciate hearing them. This photo took a long time to resize for posting. I had to try many iterations of resizing and in the end, I'm publishing it small out of frustration. However, I like the line and the subject, so here it is anyway. I struggled with cropping out the fencing to the right in order to create a more verticle feel to the photo, but then decided I liked the contrast to the more upward thrust of the grill to her face.

I cropped significantly, brought up the shadows and adjusted the to bring more of the tan color in contrast to the strong blue that pervades.

I would like to post this for workshop, but don't know how.

Hi Richard nice shot you have here, defenetely worth more attention than this, anyway, officially I can only give you 2 points but from me you get another 10, good perspective of view, thanks for showing and keep them coming, regards, Salas

Hello Richard,

Beautiful sculpture, in our entrance of the City hall, we have two seating sculptures, one is of Mercury, the other doesn't remember now, but they are beautiful as this that you show me,
The blue of the protection was wonderful details here.
In fact Rome for sculptures is a show!
Congratulations

Sérgio
