Don't know, if this picture will fit the theme, but I shot it today and to me the sculpture has something of a statue in a modern artway. Its called ' Harbour (Hafen) 77' and is a Swedish present for 10 years of Stenaline ferry travels between Kiel and Göteborg.
So yo can imagine a captain is on board an then it may fit.

This is the Minuteman statue at the Battle Green in Lexington, MA.

Wisedrum, I actually meant "sculpture" when I said "statue", so yes, yours counts in my book. Great pictures, folks. Some warm weather in the midwest should get more riders on the road this weekend and that should mean more photo opportunities.

I was riding and don't even know what roads I was on. Just going and turning and got re-routed because of emergency equipment operation at one intersection, and then this yard of sculptures was there. Had to turn around and stop for the picture.

This was up north of where I live, now that I know it's there, I'll try to find it again sometime. Great day for riding except for pretty good wind blowing.

From yesterday's ride, A bison standing watch in front of Hendricks County government building. When I saw it, thought I was back in Colorado at C.U. in Boulder, but no, he's in Danville with a flag on his rump celebrating Indiana 200 years statehood.

 

[Cormanus]

Nice shot, Vic. I thought for a minute you'd got it on the bike.

 

[the Ferret]

Nice shots Vic

 

[Cormanus]

I sent a lot of time yesterday hunting for a statue or a sculpture with surprisingly little luck. Eventually though ...

The first, in Texas Queensland, is a bit indistinct as it's about next door to the police station and I wasn't about to risk getting booked just for you guys. The sculpture is called The Spirit of Texas and, if you peer hard enough, you can see it, rusty and brown above my bag.



The second is outside a house at Koreelah, in New South Wales.

Thank you for the link, popgun. Should have thought of that.

I've no idea, but the tube at the front looks like some kind of chimney.

Tom looks good for his age. I like the reverse pic, close to the statue with bike in background.

 

[Inhouse Bob]

Lots of great shots. I hope everyone doesn't use up all their statues before the second challenge. But I don't see any posted so far that would apply to what I have in mind.

Bike is on his shoulder whispering in his ear, "Let that go for a while and let's ride!"

That is exactly what I thought when I saw the picture on the computer!
