Marvellous. Love it against the sky.

Just curious how big it is. With nothing for reference, it’s hard to tell.

I will post a photo of the whole piece. It’s slightly larger than life-size. It’s photographed by so many people visiting Wellington, I though I’d focus on detail.

Wow! That is an incredible sculpture. I didn’t realize I was looking at a sculpture until I read your photo description. Of course I do have a migraine so my judgement is probably not awesome. 😉

Hope your migraine is gone. I don’t get them, but a very dear friend does so I know how debilitating they can be. When I posted that image, I thought it looked pretty realistic and wondered about leaving the fact it’s a sculpture out of the caption — just to see whether it would confuse people.
