A wonderful idea for the theme Jean, my favourite winter woolies are made from merino wool. Nicely composed with good detail, TFS,

Hello Jean,

I think this sculpure is utterly amazing!
It is so lifelike! You have captured the details with great precision!
I like your pov but feel it would have been even better if you had jusr stepped a little to the left so we could have had a more angled view on a true diagonal.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Jean , nice shot of this funny sculpture, nice composition and details, i think it would have been better without any cropping on the left since the crop is very little.

Oh, my...the captions that come to mind:) A delightful and amusing sculpture, with fascinating and curious detail. Your POV sees it well, and the uncomplicated surroundings set the stage nicely with useful light/dark contrasts. Good shot, and it works for the theme:)

Hi Jean

Nice entry in the 'clothes' theme, with a whimsical juxtapositioning, between the sheep, & the seated man, at right. Good sharpness and colour. Tfs!

Hello Jean
I was born a few miles from here but I don't know this. Do you know anything about the reasons for the commission of the work? I suppose the artist has left just enough room for a courting couple - they might be a bit distracted though. Are there other stone benches without sculpures or is this bench an integral part of the work? In other words - was the bench there and the sculptor added the figures or was it conceived as a whole thing?
Nice work - well composed and observed
Phil
