Siren Photo
One of my favorites. Thanks to the vari-angle LCD on the Canon A80, I was able to hold the camera above my head and capture this view of O.V. "Vern" Shaffer's Siren statue.
The Siren sits atop a six-foot pedestal and isn't really very large so this photo might represent a "new look" at a familiar object for some Beloiters.
Right now, this is my Windows desktop wallpaper.
Here's a photo of the dedication plaque from the statue's base:
