Weekly Photo Contest: Statues

[vmrgav]

Statue of Gavrilo Princip, the man who pulled the trigger of WWI just over 100 years ago in Sarajevo, on June 28th 1914. That's his name in Serbian cyrillic together with a verse from a poem he carved with his own nails on a tin bowl while he was in prison after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria.
Taken yesterday in East Sarajevo with my Nexus 5, HDR+, resized, no additional editing.

"Sculpt Me Like One of Your French Girls"

This picture was taken with my old-and-retired Galaxy Nexus and edited with Snapseed.
Taken approx 1 year ago in a Museum called "Ulen Sentalu".
I don't know the back story about this statue, but it is located at the end of the Museum across a pond.
The Museum located in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, and it has very large collection about old tradition in Yogya and Java.
If you guys have a chance to visit Indonesia and specifically Yogyakarta, I recommend to visit it.
More info about the place can be seen here.

Because having a lightsaber battle with a statue while wearing the Madagascar rainbow wig is totally normal.

A photo of a statue of St.John the Baptist (his head anyway). I took this in Rome this past April on a pilgrimage. I loved the lighting and use of negative space both in the statue as well as the photo.
