#WW: Spanish War Veteran Statue, Gov John Sevier, & the old Andrew Johnson Hotel

On Sunday, before venturing out to do our dreaded grocery shopping, we drove downtown.

Spanish War Veterans (Cuba, Porto Rico, & USA) 1898-1902 This statue stands on the old courthouse grounds in downtown Knoxville.

Fences are always placed where I do not want them, so I just make the most of the opportunity. This is a tough picture to capture. I either over-expose or under-expose the image too much. The less offender of the two evils is under-exposed. At least, I like how my subject is in silhouette against a gorgeous blue sky.
