Quite high up on the NW tower you'll find Darth Vader as one of the cathedral's fifteen-hundred-plus carved stone figures known as grotesques. The result of a 1980 children's contest in which kids submitted their own drawings as designs for 4 new grotesques. As the north side of a building rarely receives direct sun during the year, Vader is installed here, appropriately, on what is... wait for it... the dark side of the cathedral, of course!

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.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
