•  Comment I propose to crop the (partly higlighted) upper part to get a complete symmetry --Llez (talk) 05:12, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

  Thank you @Llez, but this cropping was deliberate -- I preferred to keep the sculpture closer to the classic 1/3 height line of the composition. Podstawko (talk) 06:14, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

•  Support Welcome, Podstawko! The sculpture with its reflection is great, but also the contrast of its bright red with the subtle colours of the background, the lonely bench between the waters, etc. --Aristeas (talk) 07:26, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

•  Info Thank you everyone for commenting and expressing support. To add more information about the context: the photograph was taken to document the rather regular autumn flooding of the River Lee in Cork (Ireland). It was taken in Lee Fields in the west side of the city, in early morning hours a few days ago. The camera was on a tripod with a very precise levelling head but I still made a tiny manual adjustment to the levelling because of the slight skewing of the sculpture itself. This picture is taken out of a group of several dozen exposures as I was waiting for the mist to clear just to uncover the sculpture but without clearing fully.
