Again, a subject I cannot see enough of. The "Man with a Briefcase" sculpture has yet to be fully captured phtographically IMHO, but your effort here was a good one. Let's keep snappin'.

Your first one is well composed with Pier One in the background.

You're a brave man being down there in last night's weather.

The sculptutre is in the Burnett Plaza which features the tallest building in Fort Worth, and the tallest between Dallas and Los Angeles. On the north side of the Plaza is the 50-foot "Man With a Briefcase" by Jonathan Borofsky, an aluminum slab with the outline of a giant businessman cut out of the center.

This sculpture is but one of several around the country by this artist.
