Description

This is a monument dedicated to fallen heroes from the WWI. Its location is near the train station in the city of Predeal, Romania - one of the busiest touristic resorts from that country. The original shot had a clear sky, and I decided to replace it with another one, more dramatic. I tried to give it a night-shot look (and I guess it worked), but both shots were taken during the day. Many thanks for your comments, ratings and favs on my "Troubled Skies", posted yesterday! Have a beautiful day!

Superb work here. I love the postwork you've done on this. It's seamless. Perfectly done. The statues themselves definitely look like something from a particular region of the world, though I have yet to see Romania; hopefully I will. At any rate, fantastic work here!
