A popular stainless steel sculpture in Providence, RI. I've shot it many times, but wanted something different. I walked around it, looked up and saw the full moon. Put the 10-20 on, set the tripod up close to the ground and shot straight up. f5.6 for 30 sec, ISO 100. Comments and suggestions welcomed. Thanks for looking.

    Bryan it looks cool!

    Looks very Golden, not that I had any clue what it was even when I read your post, you shot it from directly underneath, what does it look like at normal eye level?

    I like your blown out moon, it appears to have rings around it.
    The composition is great for this shot, love the light too clap.gif

    Thanks for the comments.

    Skippy, the sculpture looks like this:

    It's about 8 feet in diameter. Locals call it everything from "Lifesaver with teeth" to "The giant biting donut".

    Nice shots, Bryan! thumb.gif

    For some reason, it reminds me of the prize from the Krusty the Clown breakfast cereal that Bart Simpson swallowed. :D
