    These are great statues. I like how you captured thier graineyness (if that is a word). I like them a lot.

    They say Norway is cold? When we visited the principal attraction in Oslo, the famous Vigeland Sculpture Park, it was more than 30° Celcius (>90° F)! Vigeland Park contains an extraordinary assemblage of sculptures by Gustav Vigeland. Extending for some 600m (660yd) are more than 650 individual sculptures, on which Vigeland worked for 40 years.

    Guess that black reactangular thing shouldn't be there at the right. This one's cool, anyway.

    The sky and clouds look like they were painted on a canvas and hung up for background, giving this shot a "studio" look. Quite special i'd say. :)

    Fantastic! They look almost alive. Love that hint of noise in the background.

    Well, even if it wasn't such a good picture (which it is), you get points for showing some boobie.



    I'd love to see those sculptures one day.

    bingo on the textures!!! i also love the style of these statues, reminds a bit of Botero's gardian-statues.

    Great shot. I think maybe that I would have preferred pure black and white.

    Even for taking a picture of someone else's work u need to have a good eye. you definitely proved that. good angle and process.

    Again, very good. Normally I'm allergic to duotone in pictures, but here it seems to fit the mood. I think you have a great eye for picking compositions. =)

    being last year in Norway I also made some pictures of the statues in the Vigeland Park but your shot and post-processing is SOO marvellous that I should remove my shots from my website!
