A Visit to the Lady

I waited 10 minutes for the helicopter to get close to Lady Liberty! I think the bottom half needs to be lighter but I have been unsuccessful in doing that in the darkroom.

I like the way the statue looms large, almost as if its floating. I think that simple dodging the bottom half would work. It wouldn't need much. OK the dome makes it a bit more difficult but if you keep the dodger high and keep it on the building side of the dodging line then there shouldn't be a lighter halo line.

It's a good one for practice dodging as things sticking into the sky are always more difficult.
