Description

Found this old statue of a photographer. It was beat up pretty bad, the paint was all chipped up. I liked the pose, the thought of the men and women who were pioneers into the world of picture taking.

Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/1250 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 400, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 75.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XSi

Thank you so much Jeff, Tammy, Candace, and Harvey. I entered it in catch all as it was a statue and had not looked at the themes yet. The only way to change it would be to delete it and reenter it but don't want to lose the comments made. #11728578
