    Very Nice! I was just there again a couple days ago (again). A true pleaure to watch and photograph. It appears that the angle is exactly where I was standing this last trip. One of my shots looks very similar but a vertical. And similar focal length. I Like the close arangement. Makes for an unusual photo from this popular icon. Nice work Stevo
