[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hollywood is a district of the city of Los Angeles, California, situated northwest of Downtown. It is a popular destination for nightlife and tourism, and home to the Walk of Fame.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame is a sidewalk along Hollywood Boulevard, which simulated “red carpet” and is embedded with more than 2,000 five-pointed stars featuring the names of celebrities honored by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce for their contributions to the entertainment industry.
If you cross Hollywood Boulevard at La Brea, you have to pause to view the Silver Four Ladies of Hollywood Gazebo, a quartet of statues of four women who influenced film industry: Anna May Wong, Dolores del Rio, Mae West, and Dorothy Dandridge. One of them is on this picture.

Bonjour Alena
A judicious point of view addind an air of dignity to this beautiful structure!
Much interesting note.
I would have try, though, to clone away the streetlight.
Wonderful!

Good POV looking upwards creating plenty of impact and making the shot very eye catching. Good use of polariser to darken the loverly blue sky
