Robin Hood Shoots His Arrow at The Wife !

...luckily he missed !!!!

This is the Robin Hood statue outside Nottingham Castle.

I've seen this shot done before where somebody is in the distance, in the line of his arrow and sight !

Luckily for me though (well I have to say that), Robin missed !!!!

I had to convert to monochrome because the wall on the left hand side had some orange bricks in the repair, which made the wall look too modern !

The light was hard too with some bright light in the top right hand corner and some on the back of Robins head.

Anyway it was a nice fun shot to do and Jane reluctantly agreed to be his target

The foreground pigeons add a bit of added interest to the shot

Great b&w

Fun shot; good call converting to monochrome!

That person shouldn't have been doing that against the tree - deserves to be shot!!! HaHa!

Good on Jane. This is a lovely shot

I like the sun on the back of Robin's head. Lucky your wife is a good sport.

Love it in monochrome. What a fun photo. I really like the light on Robin's head.
