Description

More sculpture from the Sculpture by the Sea Exhibition. I have cropped this, added a gausian blur, adjusted the levels, enhanced the colurs and applied an unsharp mask. I am much happier with this than the original. It was difficult to get a decent shot of this so thank heavens for the "digital darkroom"
