There are monuments scattered all around Adelaide and although I’ve driven past them on more than one occasion I’ve rarely taken the time to really stand back and admire them for what they represent.

I reckon this monument dedicated to aviator Sir Ross Smith to be particularly remarkable. This is a photo of the statue commemorating Sir Ross Smith, our very own local hero, in Adelaide, South Australia. It’s located just outside Adelaide Oval and I found it to be quite unique in that it also had two other statues attached to the base.

This is one of them and don’t ask me what he represents because I just don’t know.

This is the other one, a topless Angel, strange but true. I took it as a silhouette as I thought it more stunning that way.

And finally, the monument to Sir Ross Smith in all it’s glory.

We pretty well owe a lot to one man and that man is Colonel William Light, who just happened to be the bloke who designed our beautiful city of Adelaide. Adelaide also owes his location to him. To learn more of this great man I suggest you have a look at the ‘History Of SA‘ website. This statue was originally located in Victoria Square and was moved to it’s present location on Montefiore Hill in 1938.

And in case you are wondering what he is pointing at:

One day I will have to take some night shots so that I can post them here for you guys to see.
