    There's a new statue in Julia Davis Park of Abraham Lincoln next to the Black History Museum. It's larger than life size.

    That's a cool move to put your hand on his! Really helps us visualize his size.

    Thanks, that was the idea. When I went to photograph the statue that was the one shot I knew I would take, simply because it was one way of showing size. There weren't any kids around at the time to stand next to it.
