This is a superb shot which really brings out the texture. I love the determination in her stride. So impressive.

I like this angle and the b/w

how different this looks than the other shot. both shots have different merits

Gee, I think Madonna is a walking worry as she appears gaunt & pained in her appearance though I know nothing of who she is or more appropriately was. I expect she was as pictured an interesting person of note.

I think Madonna here is a walking worry as she is gaunt with a pained expression to her face, her walking forward isn't quite a stride as much as a fatigued slow step, a stride would be wider. This is only my perception of what I see, knowing nothing of Madonna . She must have been a person of note to which I am quite ignorant.

Karen - you do know of her - here 'Madonna' is used to refer to a sculpture of the Virgin Mary and I think your analysis of the statue is perceptive. (I found that the word Madonna has other archaic meanings.)

@quietpurplehaze Silly me, what was I thinking, naturally I know of the Virgin Mary. I did tell you I wasn't a church goer, didn't I ! Maybe now it's evident oops ! I will make amends tonight to the higher powers !

A super shot showing textures and movement

Karen, I think there is no need - to make amends - to anyone!

A marvellous capture.

This works so well in b&w. Really cool photograph, love how you have bought out the textures.

Micahel, thanks - I should have written down what I did as I don't think I'll remember next time!

Wonderful capture.

An other great shot of it. The B+W works very well in this beautiful pic.

such a different feeling in this one - I like it too, but it makes me sadder than the other. She looks so gaunt.
