TITC - PERSPECTIVE

Sam Houston Statue, I 45, TX

A different perspective to the giant statue of Sam Houston on the way home from Houston. This guy can be found on Interstate 45 just south of Huntsville. I always like to stop and get a pic or two.

Norbert Fortelny09-Oct-2008 14:41
Dramatic, agreed.
But intimidating too, I guess that fits.
This picture brings it out very well, much better than a full size image from a distance does.
I also like the simplicity in the color palette and the pronounced contrast.
Barbara Heide09-Oct-2008 14:36
brilliant! v
Ken Duckert09-Oct-2008 14:32
This is a very stunning photo. Contrast, color and POV are dramatic.
Terri Steele09-Oct-2008 13:36
Excellent entry Cindi!!!!
Guest 09-Oct-2008 13:34
Spectacular and very graphic. High contrast and high s(t)aturation work well here.
