Cathedral Sculpture and an empty factory

pauldaviescartoons

I took this photograph some ten years ago at the Cathedral in Gloucester when they were starting to assemble a sculpture Exhibition which was to feature many stunning sculptures throughout the Cathedral grounds and the building itself. This was the second time that the people at the Cathedral arranged for this sort of event. I was involved to a small degree in that I was the lucky print guy who got the work for Severnprint where I worked in sales.

I rather like the way people lean when looking at pictures as if to look around them, or perhaps  as in this case as he did not lean, the image was talking to him into those lovely big ears.
