This photography looks very interesting. By using these orange/grey tones you make the photography looking old/ancient. It really gives the impression as if the statue is standing on a free field or meadow with the forest in the background. Also that old colomn has caught my interest. First I thought that it could be Roman but now I feel that it is rather Greek. With that fruit basket in her arms and standing in the nature, the statue reminds me a bit of Greek goddess Demeter.
I wonder where this beautiful place is?
And again the orange shades are really an interesting technique. Keep up that great work.

Thanks, here are a couple of other shots that have a little more info with them, but the statue is actually a mystery.  We found her in the middle of the woods on a walk in the middle of nowhere in Elberta, AL.  She was quite a ways off any road.  We had pulled off the road to walk the dogs at a spot where we saw an enormous T-Rex statue peeking through the trees, and from there we could see something way far off in the distance.  Someone had told us about the dinos so we thought it was another one, so off we went with the dogs.  I turned out to be a life size replica of Stonehenge instead!! We were in shock! It was a huge monolithic stone made out of fiberglass.  If they weren't fake stones I would have wondered if we had crossed a fairy ring or something.  So we looked for more things from that site and could see what like like sunlight on water far off in the distance and decided to check it out, and that is where we found the Lady by the Lake and her ring of columns.  There  was nothing else around her.  It was so magical and picturesque.  During the course of the rest of the day we found more dinos, some small knight statues and ended up at a High End Marina that had a huge marble fountain with the God Neptune on it and mermen, looked like they plucked it right out of Italy.  What a strange magical day.  Is is my favorite day trip place now and the dogs love it because they get to run off leash.
