Marilyn Visits Palm Springs

I was in Palm Springs yesterday having lunch with friends. While driving down the main drag I saw this larger-than-life statue of Marilyn. Apparently it's on loan to the city for a while.

Clever capture....

[Kay Hodges]

Fun capture and interesting pov!

[Stephanie Swift]

She certainly is an icon, especially in the photograph on which this is based. Great lighting in this shot.

Woo hoo! Love the statue, wonderful catch.

Great shot Joy! Really like the composition and the colors! Did you tweak it?

@thirdjoe Hi Joe, just a hint of tweaking. And I took out a sign that was not appealing to me.

We had one in Chicago maybe a year ago. I wonder if it's the same one? Or same artist? Quite the shot! You've captured the scale really well.

@taffy Hi Taffy. It could be the same statue and artist because It's only temporary. I heard the artist also did one of Elvis and Michael Jackson. I'd love to see those too.

Great angle on this! I did a photo of Marilyn here last year but
yours is much better.

@redy4et Thanks Elizabeth!
