Some fine artwork there - the bird looks truly to be in flight !

This is a statue, but,... full of live. I like it.

This is beautiful, JJ. I like the dof and colours. This is one impressive statue - the bird seems to be in mid-air. Very well captured

A homage to the power of the chip in attracting seagulls. Who would have thought it :) You have captured the quality of the sculpture well

the DOF and the perspective coupled with the texture makes it a beautiful image!

"Boy Feeding Seagulls" ...this statue is fairly new.....and interesting when people tell you not to do that as they can get feisty and come back and start stealing your pocket books and such. At one outdoor lobster pond we ate at in Camden, Maine the sign said, "Eat At Your Own Risk" because of just that! Seagulls snatch your food and once had snatched a woman's pocket book and dropped it out into the ocean ;)

cool image. seems like to me he's just inviting the bird to poop on him. :)

Good evening, JJ,
it is a very interesting sculpture and excellent reproduction. I think the artist intended to express the human and nature, can harmonize with each other. It works only if it is accepted. 5 stars ***** Have a nice evening, and all the best. Sincerely Christel

Wow what a fantastic sculpture. That bird is beautifully positioned so it looks like it is hovering above the hand. Great shot.

That is a very cool sculpture and shot.

It looks so modern, JJ, which is what I like about it. Something I can relate to (instead of the old statues of men from 50 years ago). :D

Very beautiful capture! The DOF blue color just mathes the focused sculpture!

Love the light and shadow, wonderful composition and colours. Great eye I would say.
