Iron Woman
A piece of art I encountered on a small square inside the medieval walls of Avila. I really liked the way she stood out against the old textured wall.
(1/250, F2.8, ISO100, 23mm)
After a year of shootouts in Aragon and Spain, I'm celebrating it with one shot a day for the year to come…
Very good choosing tittle for this lady.I like it.
Dank je, MaryLou. Iron Lady was misschien nog beter geweest bedacht ik me toen ik je reaktie las
Goed weekend, Ron.
Wao ! This is what I’ve been thinking to make
next to beer-can sculpture [Supponpon]
Haha, thanks Yoshi(??), some rock-n-roll while making em and that’s all you need
Greetings,
Ron
Wow! This is absolutely breathtaking.
Hello Tami, thank you for the compliment, glad to hear you like it!
Greetings, Ron
Love the strong contrast of colors in this image. the piece of sculpture is beautiful in itself but is enhanced even more with the reddish background. Well done!
Thank you very much for this great feedback; nice to know you liked the background here too! greetings, Ron
Truely said, amazing art it is.
That was my thought too (hopefully the photo falls into your art as well?
That’s awesome!
Thank you, Rob, very nice of you!
I just re-read my comment and realize it really doesn’t say what needs to be said. this is the finest photography I have come across in my short time of blogging~! Your use of existing light and shadows is supreme and you have a fine eye for subjects. I will be trailing along with you in your travels.
Wow, thats an amazing compliment; makes me really happy to hear such praise, very flattered and sincerely hope I can keep up with the standards you describe! Thanks very much and big greetings, Ron
Some very fine photography on your blog site. Thank you.
Great photo and amazing art work,Cheers Callie
Thanks so much, Callie for taking time out and complimenting me on this one! Cheers to you, Ron

Quite obvious I d say!
Love your republishing series. Keep going!
True and I will be reposting, but not quitting on new and unvisited new ones too
That is the spirit!! Looking forward to them!
A fine sculpture, well observed and well captured. I like the strength of the lines against ‘plain’ background. The naturally restricted colour range is very effective.
Thank you, Louis, exactly aimed for the almost monochrome colours in this one and did like the sculpture very much too!
Greetings, Ron.
She’s quite beautiful!
Thought so too, David
Great sculpture and lovely photograph of it. The colours are sympathetic but the figure stands out well.
Thank you, Noeline, liked the similarity in colours to make it almost monochrome, but good to hear the statue still gets all the attention!
Great shot. Belongs in a the artists catalog or in a high quality art publication. Well done.
Thank you, Terry, wish I knew who the artist was….
