Photo Composition: The Greeting and the Gift

It's not easy to take photos of the sculpture grouping, The Greeting and the Gift.

The two sculptures, one of an American Indian and the other of a Mountain Man, are placed 20 yards or more apart, on either side of a bridge spanning I-25N.

Because it's on a bridge, it's hard to get a panoramic shot of the sculptures - especially if it's a grey day!

I took these photos with my Galaxy SIII smartphone, on a cloud-covered day. I'll have to revisit on a sunnier day and try again.

But for now...
