In this photo a statue of Brigadier General John Stark in front of the 306ft (93m) obelisk. The plaque has a quote stating, "There they are boys! We beat them today or Molly Stark sleeps a widow tonight!"
Lessons Learned:
- I took a series of photos. It was a bright day, and was difficult balancing the light between the dark statue, the tower, and the bright ski. I ended up pulling it into Photoshop and adjusting the levels on the tower and the statue.
- I found having the statue in the foreground to be a much more interesting photograph, than just the obelisk. I took various angles with the statue to the left of the tower, and the right. I ended up choosing this photo becuase of the interesting cloud patterns in the background.

Cool shot! I love the perspective, and it's almost like a portrait.
Yes, you gave him a nice dramatic presence from that angle! Nice job on the PP - the exposure levels look great on both objects.
that is where I went to college, a mile or two from that spot, and let's just jokes were made about that phallical item sticking up out there...
Steve, Super shot!
Those pesky Brits!
