Goliath and the Little People
A close-up shot of the in 1972 constructed 40m high statue of Jose Maria Morelos - a great Mexican hero (so we are told). The statue sits on top of the Isla Janitzio in Lago Patzcuaro - Michoacan, Mexico.
If you have time ..... some shots of the interesting interior (where I was of course not allowed to take photos and had to rush without flash)
.
