An interesting statue isn't it...even though it is uploaded upside down. :)
I wish the statue was clean enough to admire its beauty. The water in the lake was still. That caught my attention.
This is King Lear's statue in Watermead Country Park, Leicestershire, UK.
*** The main lake at Watermead is King Lear's Lake and has been named after the legend of King Lear, who ruled Britain in the 8th century. On his death, he was buried in a chamber under the River Soar.
The statue is built on a platform in the lake; it shows the final scene from Shakespeare's play King Lear. ***

Very unique. I had to study it for awhile before I figured out that it was upside down.

Great image! It took me a while to work out what was going on too. Made it interesting.

I like the photo and it is a creative way of displaying it but I think I prefer it upright (just a single opinion).

At the time of processing, this twist felt interesting...that's it.. It's just a thought process of that moment. Thank you for your review.

I love the imagen upside down. The tree line gives the illusion of the reflection being below the statue
