Neptune's Nymph
Uploaded: December 18, 2011 05:55:36
One of the two sea nymphs that form part of Neptune's Court, in the colossal decorative fountain in front of the Library of Congress.
She occupies a masonry niche to the right of Neptune; I liked how the half-dome of her niche suggested a scallop shell of radiating lines.
Texture layer added, along with Levels, Curves, spot clone, Soft Light layer and others.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
