That statue of Miet van Puyenbroek (Fighter for Woman rights in an hostile catholic industrial environment and elected as Tilburger of the Century) is a big chunck of white Italian marble with a weight of more than 8.000 kilo. Normally it's very very grey. The reflection of the sun in the opposite windows gave it however a special glow.

Musicians in Vienna

[Jyda]

Two from Stockholm

[John Geerts]

Actually backlight for the two statue's of lions, who were the decoration the entrance gate of 'House Moerenburg' in the 14th century. There was no sun, cloudy, so an ideal neutral grey background.

Very interesting, John spacers; Jyda´s statues come to life, cold and in danger; Øivin musician closeness, honest clear; Fons inclusion of the surroundings is very clever; etc...
