I am here to see if I can get some advice on cleaning up this work that has high EV. I had taken this shot previously and attempted to get it promoted (see Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Victory Monument and Wikipedia:Valued picture candidates/Victory Monument). In my prior, attempt an editor made the face of the sculpture more visible with some editing. I was wondering if that is necessary again.

  • I tried, but there isn't any additional recoverable detail here (because the lighting is much harder). During winter the sun would be lower in the sky and you'd get more of it in. In whole the picture isn't too bad, though perhaps more tightly cropped than ideal. Noodle snacks (talk) 12:10, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
