We've feature a fair few statues in this list, ant that's because they just require that extra bit of skill. You think it would be easier to photograph a statue at the right time, because they never move or blink (hopefully) and ruin your shot. Nut on the other hand, you can't move them around to match the shot like you can a human subject. With a statue, you can't adapt.
Someone must have thought of putting a cloud in the background of this statue before, but it's never been done as well as this. This photo is just perfect - the angle of the trumpet, the flare of the clouds, and the way it lines up. See, if that was a human with a trumpet you could just move them around to match the clouds. With this statue, you have to be millimeter perfect.
