A wonderful photo Charlie...what is the scale of this sculpture? I could picture this being 40' or 6' or even smaller.

Very nice shot, Charlie.
Some impressive and old craftsmanship can be found in that part of the world.
I have been there in the late eighties but wasn't into photography back then.
Only fading memories.

Thanks Ray, Lazlo, Tom, Eric and Chris.
As memory serves, the smaller statue was about 5-feet tall (perhaps life-size back then), and the larger statue about 30 feet.

+1. The contrast makes the shot for me. Beautiful image.
