Favorite Foto Friday - Statue of Liberty 2014

On our recent trip to visit Leah, we did a couple of "tourist" things again.  This time, we actually took the ferry to Liberty Island and got to walk around the Statue of Liberty.  I am having trouble deciding on a single "favorite" photo from the trip.  Here are two.  Which do you like best?

First, the view from the ferry, when we could see the entire statue, base and all.

Next, the view from the island. Grand, isn't she?

I will say this: the blue in the blog photos is not nearly as striking as in the real photos, or as it was that beautiful August day. You'll have to click through to get to the versions stored on Flickr to really see that blue.
