New gargoyle on the side of the Lausanne Cathedral : Lausanne, CH


This past weekend involved a visit to Lausanne, home of the International Olympic Committee. There's a beautiful Gothic cathedral--"another bloody cathedral," as the tour companies say--in the center of the old town. They've recently done some restoration work on it. I loves me a good gargoyle!

Marley: That's what I LOVE about Gothic cathedrals: all the detail. It's part of why I've put Cheltenham on my list of must-see places in Britain. I want to see the cathedral there.

Nice shot. I actually got a good shot of the gargoyle which is very different from this one, but it hasn't been processed yet.
