It's a very nice shot. The statue, which is the highest value in the scene is somewhere around zone 7. None of the highlites are burned out. The blackest blacks are well within the range of the film. There aren't a lot of values in between because they don't exist in the scene. But where there are middle grays, such as at the base of the wall, they are well represented. And of course the single splotch of color is magnificent. Like much of Mark's work, it's a great photograph. Paul Stenquist
