The Statue of Liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World; French: La Liberté éclairant le monde)
Adding a Little Drama to a Photograph (Good or Bad), sometimes its the part of Photography that I enjoy the most
the post processing trying to bring to life a scene that you have envisioned in your head of something you have dreamed of seeing all your life.

Softly she said…this is one image that should not be altered………
taken as softly as was meant, and as she stands for Liberty and Freedom I think she will understand !!

I certainly do..soft smile : )
Beautiful. I just drove past her recently on a trip. I could see her from the bridge. Were you there recently?
Hi Skye
No not for awhile this was one from the archive as I have not had a chance recently to get out and take photos. Hopefully soon, hope you are having a wonderful start to the year

This is SO BEAUTIFUL! I have loved Lady Liberty since I was 4 years old. I now have a 10 month old daughter and cannot wait to take her to NY to visit her. Thank you so much for the gorgeous post! I hope you take more and share.
Thank you for such a kind comment, I too love Lady Liberty and was blown away when I finally seen her and still am every time I do. I am sure the visit with your Daughter will be a treasured memory for you both that will last a lifetime

Did you crop this? Is there a reason the top of flame is not included in the frame. I really like the drama processed in the sky. Bold decision to change the colour of such a famous statue.
Thanks Beth
No reason that the flame is not in the frame other than bad Composition on my part. This was realy more about the Processing and creating drama, to try and make what was a very bright day complete blue sky a little more interesting.
Thank for your great comment Beth and for taking an interest.
Mike
beautiful and great shot!!
Thank you so Much
Yes! I like it with the dramatic sky and clay tones in the statue. Definitely a new dimension.
Thanks mofman I thought it needed something to bring it to life
