Description
Allow me to wish all my friends and visitors from the US a happy 4th of July! Have fun and stay safe!
I have captured Lady Liberty in NYC in 2007 on one of my visits to your lovely country and decided to give her some grunge treatment! She is old enough to carry it with pride... LOL...
Thank you for popping in and for your very valued comments and favs on my previous uploads! I am back from my getaway and am slowly but surely trying to catch up on comments!!!
Hugs, Carin xx

Now once again this works! I'm not a fan of this grunge do-dah, but some look good, others not!
With all of our discussions about to grunge or not to grunge, I like this...and I think keeping the lady clean, but adding to the uniqueness of the background is my reason... Thank you for the wishes:)
very good :D
Thank you!
Happy 4th of July to our friends in the USA! God bless you all. Striking display against the grunged background!
wonderful picture!!!!! Great!!!!
a fine combination and dedication...smile
Very nice!
Excellent and very creative work. Looks superb!
Like an aged postcard that might have been handed down from an immigrant ancestor who landed on Ellis Island back in the early 1900's. Fine post work and very fitting for our 4th and a sweet dedication, Carin. :)
I like the effect on this picture. It gives a feeling of how long the Statue of Liberty has been standing there. Good job!
Wonderful effects, Carin and thank you!
Excellent and echo your sentiments today
One of those photos that carried grunge beautifully and you did an excellent job. Most stellar wish and photo.
You are NOT helping me decide! LOL! This is wonderful. A perfect use of grunge! Just when I had come to the point where I said, "no ... it's really not my thing ..." you go and post THIS! Spectacular work, dierbaar! It's nice to have you back ... ek mis jou vrek baie!! >:D<
LOL at Tara--it's exactly the way I feel about grunge. I think, oh yuck, then WOW--you do this!! Beautiful!!
This is one of the beautiful grunge works. Well done, my friend. :-)
Fantastic work! This is gorgeous...
This is stunning. Wonderful work. A powerful image.
Stupendous Work and Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow one of the best images of the statue that I have seen.
Just a fantastic image I really like the way you have used the grunge effect here awesome work!!
Fanstastic photo
You grunged Le Grande Dame of Liberty? Carin! Actually, it looks pretty good and strikingly unique, with the statue standing contrasted amidst an ancient bronzed papyrus effect, suggesting that this art has been around for centuries, locked away in one of the Smithsonian museums.
To goodoleboy...no Carin didn't grunge Le Grande Dame of Liberty! It was already done but thank god she found it and was able to clean up the statue itself and left the background alone....Harry you amaze me!!!! Love the photo...love the photographer!!!
Stunning artwork Carin.
This is amazing. Lady Liberty actually does look like a treasure somewhere down in the vaults of the Smithsonian. It's funny, but the way this looks also makes me think that some form of cuneiform writing wouldn't be too out of place here...that's how good, and authentically ancient it looks. Great work!
Lovely work Carin, the grunge fits perfectly
the one time I made it to NYC, the statue was closed for renovations for 150th anniversary of the USA.I did see it from a helicopter vantage point however.excellent and creative post work
A fantastic job you done here!
