This gargoyle or statuette is on a building on Market Street. I have walked up that road a thousand times & have never noticed it before and if it wasn't for my blogging, I might never know it was there. Besides the long distance friendship that we gain from doing this hobby, it also gives us an opportunity of looking at our hometowns differently and spotting things that might otherwise go unnoticed.
We have a lot of these in old buildings in Bombay. Ofcourse, the credit there too goes to the British who built fantastic buildings that have really weathered the test of time. This guy is kind of cute... looks hungry though!
ReplyDeletei am so impressed by your observation skills.
ReplyDeleteWell said and well shot.
ReplyDeleteLooks a little like a 'Green Man'. Are they oak leaves meant to be coming from his mouth/nose?
ReplyDeleteNice site.
