Gargoyle in the garden
This is a picture of the gargoyle statue in my Dad's back yard. Mom fell in love with the gargoyles she saw on the sides of buildings during our trip to France in 1997. Upon our return home, she immediately ran an errand to the garden store and purchased a miniature gargoyle for the back yard. The statue stands about 2 feet tall ( 61 cm) and he sometimes looks really scary at night!

I don't know why I'm laughing. I've had major surgery before, and this picture scares the hell out of me. :P

Please accept my apologies, Gary. I'm so sorry I scared you. However, having said that, you seriously don't want to know just how close this is to reality!!! ;) :laugh:

Oh, David, it is so obvious that you are a professional! :D
The pics of Cody with your Dad are simply gorgeous in their intimacy and joyousness.
I liked the first park pic most; that is, the darkest, most atmospheric pic of the three. Spooky! :o
But my favourite is this exquisite pic of the blood-red lunar eclipse, framed in foliage. I love the colour of the sky.

I spend too long at my desk.
No wonder I don't have many photos of Sydney.
Aaaah, but, this weekend, all that will change !
