Stranded Octopus
Uploaded: August 29, 2012 03:58:47
Hi up on a buttress gablet, this carved octopus (known as a grotesque) seems to wear a look of surprise or dismay, at how far she is from the sea.
(She's a she, per Jeff Sypeck's book "Looking Up", poetry inspired by the cathedral carvings, wherein this octopus reappraises her lobster lover.)

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
