Mustangs

These mustang statues have caught my eye on several occasions and I loved the way the sun was hitting them today and stopped to take a few shots!

[Lesley Chisholm]

Nice lighting and cool clouds in the background too!

[Wendy]

@kiwichick Thank you Lesley!

[Harry J Benson]

Nice angle and framing of the statues, all I can think of is "Ghost Riders in the Sky"

[Wendy]

@hjbenson Thank you Harry! I'm lol, because when I saw the title to the song, it so fits!! Now I can't get it out of my head!! :-)

[Deborah DeJong]

Beautiful! When I first saw the thumbnail I thought the mustangs were real. Where is this statue located? I'm in Westcliffe for the week. I brought my parents (my dad is a great photographer) and we hope to head to your area sometime this week.

[Jennifer C]

wonderful light! They look so real!

[Lakshmi Sharath]

great shot with the clouds

[Wendy]

@dejongdd Thank you Deb! They are located on the Briargate exit off I-25. It is a statue dedicated to John Venezia, the developer of Shops at Briargate, for his vision, motivation, and drive.

[Wendy]

@dejongdd Hope you enjoy your visit to the Springs area, especially with your parents!! Sounds like a great trip!
