Statue , Fortuna , Rotterdam
Ofcourse we can find the golden style statue of Fortuna at a casino.
I've used a dodge and burn tool to upgrade the contrasts of the statue against the dark building also to give it a more silver style.
Light enters and I remember who I am: he is there.
He begins by telling me his name which is mine.
.. , in the shadows of the other kingdom, there will I be,
waiting for myself.
Entra la luz y me recuerdo: ahí está...

Obviously three of them have an advantage but I think Kaiser was doing a fantastic job seeing it was the first time he had ever played Statues. Can you spot Milu? I missed her totally when I took the photo - lol
These statues are part of an art exhibition in Budapest.
The New World Design for Contemporary Art presents almost 600sqm of the world of the Great War, which can be seen as the epoch that radically changed the world order of the time: the formerly stable empires have dissolved, culture and public thought have changed dramatically. World War II buried the old world, the result of a new world conflagration and then the Cold War. Europe was bleak in the twilight that the 20th century was dominated by America and Russia.
The exhibition takes visitors from happy peace to enthusiasm for war and bitter disappointment. It shows how the civilization of civilized and global warfare was fought, how the 19th century came to a standstill and the hinterland became the battlefield. The nature of war has changed: victory has now become a function of the amount of war material.

This is exactly the kind of thing I pictured in my head visiting temples in Egypt. This statue is believed to be King Tutankhamun, located in Karnak Temple.
The statues of John of Matha, Felix of Valois and Saint Ivan are outdoor sculptures by Ferdinand Brokoff, installed on the south side of the Charles Bridge in Prague, Czech Republic.
Statue of Duke Paoa Kahanamoku
He won 3 gold, 2 silver, and 1 bronze medal as a swimmer in 4 Olympic Games between 1912 and 1932. He was also known as the "Father of International Surfing."
So you have seen one part of my garden. This is another section and we have this enormous fish statue (Marlin) near the entrance to our house. It's not mine, we are just the custodians of it and I am not sure for how long. The owner and a friend lives in Hong Kong. It raises a lot of interest when people visit us (not at the moment though) some like it and others are not sure.
