Where Can I Find a Bike Shop?

Where Can I Find a Bike Shop?. The Orangerie in Frederick the Great's fabulous Park Sanssouci in Potsdam – south-west of Berlin – was built between 1851 and 1864, and this ("Technology") is one of a number of allegorical statues standing in niches at the front of the building. The carving is exquisite. The sun was very strong and I was careful to avoid clipping the highlights on the light stonework. Nevertheless Adobe Camera Raw has allowed me to pull back the texture of the stone in the highlight areas (not visible too well in this web-size image), and to encourage a little more shadow detail in the wheel. Some tweaks to Levels and Gamma to get the balance of the background just right.
