And if you look closely in the top left, what appears to be a jellyfish. Unidentified Flying Marinelife?

Launceston Castle Gatehouse

*So* much manipulation went into this – which I'd normally disapprove of – to get rid of the unsightly signs and traffic island in the middle of the road. It's by no means perfect (the far kerb and the bollard give it away) but I didn't want to spend an entire lifetime on it. Although I'm tempted to revisit it... Anyway, I much prefer the "old world" look that the street furniture was ruining.

Coquette. And Bruce.

From the London "Open Doors Day", on which the public are annually allowed into buildings not normally open to them, or in some cases are allowed in to non-free attractions for free. This is part of my favourite sculpture in London, a monument to Wellington and Waterloo, atop the arch which was intended to be the entrance to London, via Green Park. It's opposite Apsley House, Wellington's own pad... with the excellent address of "Number 1, London." It reminds me somewhat of the amazing Soviet sculpture (in Ukraine) of Cossack riders — although that statue reaches across a road in terrifying fashion. (It's here .)

I'm ready for the farrier now

This is my favourite of my pics from the London "Open Doors Day", on which the public are annually allowed into buildings not normally open to them, or in some cases are allowed in to non-free attractions for free. This horse is part of my favourite sculpture in London, a monument to Wellington and Waterloo, atop the arch which was intended to be the entrance to London, via Green Park.

Nobody was noticing the stencilling on the inside of these archways until I stopped to take a photo of one, after which a queue to do so developed! ;)
