Which series do you mean? The Italian as a whole or this trio of statues from the Capitoline museum? What about it works for you? Is there something that doesn't?

Hi Scott - in general I'm attracted to simple, clean, expressive compsositions. Many of your Roman photos have this. I like this one in particular, partly because of the subject, partly the lighting, and also because of the stuff going on at the sides which brings some tension into the composition. I also like it because you've triggered some thoughts to explore in my own photos. Thanks :smile:

You do me great honor, sir, to have found inspiration in my work for your own.
