Note:Photography-"Rule of thumb"- Always have light in front of object. By the way, USPS is cheaper when it comes to wieght. Priority mail depending on size would cost between $4.95 to about $10.00(you scared everyone away when told them $16). :)
As far as the photography, I only have a cell phone to take pictures with and I could not get a light between me and the statue. Thank you for letting me know about the cheaper postage. I looked at the USPS website and you are right. It will only cost $6.20 for shipping. Thank you for the comment and good luck.
