For me it has to be the last one. It is charming, you would love to know what the child is thinking.

I agree with bforbes, the last one is a study in a childs appreciation of the statue and is a moment that could not be repeated.

Have you looked at a tighter crop, ie. top, bottom & left side

King Robert looks real!. The detail is amazing.

I once had the crap scared out of me, in Covent Garden, by one of those gits who paint themselves grey, like a statue and stand perfectly still for ages, then suddenly move.
