looking up/looking down 
At the risk of bringing the mood down, the cherub looks like he’s been bathing in acid rain for a few decades. He’s had an amputation at some stage too, poor love (I think someone should write a story about him…any takers?) The rest of the city, on the other hand, looks the very picture of health!
Go right ahead, Glen.There’s always beauty, and story, in architectural decay. 🙂
What a nice way to end the working week with these lovely reminders of beautiful Paris.
Thanks, Pat. 🙂
