    Is that a sculpture of Marilyn Monroe?

    Strange as it sounds, I feel for her. Great gesture!

    Technically, the shadows in the gentlemen at photo left are way dark - probably a consequence of the harsh available light. Might not be much you can do, depending on the original, but I'd see if you can recover some detail from his shirt and pants, and maybe Miss Monroe's hair as well. Unfortunately, it looks like the scene's dynamic range exceeded your camera's. Kind of hard to work around that with live subjects. Fortunately, none of that affects the shot's unique emotion.

    Thanks for the response, critique, and suggestions. I'll give it another go. I captured about six or seven of her, I'll see if any more are presentable.
