    Very nice overhead shot. Adding the three marines in the shot gives some balance to the composition.

    Perfect composition! How can in this world three passing marines have more grace than a 'statue'? Something is wrong with this concept of 'art'...

    I think this is the coolest statue post I've seen! Way to go, Marie Noyale! I've never seen three marines pass up a naked lady before, though! ;-)

    This is fabulous. The three marines put this one over the top. I also think the markings on the tiled floor add some interest.

    You definitely win the prize for the most creative angle for Theme Day. It's also a fresh look at Botero's work. Well done, indeed.

    Je reconnais bien ton oeil! La rondeur de Botero et les angles droits des lignes de carrelage, miam!

    Sorry M-N, but I have been to busy to visit my blogger friends lately! Now, at last I checked your last posts, one photo more amazing than the other! Not a surprise as such, coming from you, but I'm always impressed! You have a gift always to find something "more", something that most of us would have missed ... and always so artistically!

    Ce sont-ils retournés ?

    Une scène très insolite, j'adore ton coup d'oeil.

    Ils regardent droit devant eux. Ces rondeurs les laissent de marbre !

    JE n'ai pas l'impression que les hommes soient intéressés par cette femme. Mais peut-être l'ont-ils déjà vue.
