Default queen victoria statue

This is a statue of Queen Victoria in Southport, UK. The bluse sky was a novelty here!

Queen Victoria's Statue

Exif
Camera Nikon D80
Exposure 0.005 sec (1/200)
Aperture f/7.1
Focal Length 55 mm
Focal Length 55.0 mm

Do you think it could be improved with some post processing? Or, would it have been better to have taken it from another angle?

Cheers.

John.

We've got an almost identical statue in the middle of Dunedin, NZ. Blue sky is a novelty here at the moment too
Wonder how she'd look if you took the shot from the direction she is looking in?

Nice shot. The angle is perfect.. like the queen is looking down or over us minions :P The only thing is that her feet seem cut off. I wish you would of got her feet or where her dress ends
