Education physique!, a photo from Aquitaine, West

Photographer's Note

It's a small part of a well known monument in Bordeaux: le monument des Girondins.
Built between 1894 and 1904 with a 43m high column having a bronze statue of 11 m of a woman, 2 fountains with bronze horses and human. They were sold for 30 francs/kg to the german to be transformed in guns, but they disappear in 1943. They have been found in Angers long after the war end, and transported back in Bordeaux where they have been reinstalled in 1982.

Hi Claude
I'm surprised more people have not commented on this photo of yours!
I probably wouldn't have thought to crop it in this way, but hey...you're the photographer, and you created a 'creative' compo - what more could you ask for!
lovely light, comical, funny, and cute
cheers

Bonjour Claude,
Belle réalisation sans le moindre doute. Je salut ton choix de la présenter sous cet angle. Petite touche d'ingéniosité avec un soupçon de créativité à mon sens. Chapeau !!!!
Comme dit dans les précédents commentaires, la composition dans son ensemble reste un succès. Douce lumière avec un cadrage fort en équilibre.

Très bonne journée
Hicham
