GIVE ME YOUR TIRED....

GIVE ME YOUR TIRED....

Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breath free;
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless,
Tempest-tossed to me
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!

I finally got a good closeup of the Susquehanna Statue of Liberty! I rode the rapids of the Susquehanna River on a kayak to get my shot. Taken 7/4/09 from the middle of the Susquehanna River near Fort Hunter, Harrisburg, PA
I used photoshop to clone out the ropes that were wrapped around her neck. Natural color and sunlight.

    Thanks for your dedication in getting this shot – excellent! Did you have the camera in a waterproof housing? Thanks for the side shots too.

  • ldeiter78 replied

    Thank you! I did not have my camera protected – I just held it high when I was in the rapids and prayed I wouldn’t flip the kayak!! Next time I’m planning to buy something to protect it!
