More from the Monument

Untitled, originally uploaded by kmcgivney.

Yesterday, I posted a photo of The Monument in London, which commemorates the Great Fire of 1666. While my boyfriend at the time (now husband) climbed its 311 steps on the day I took these photos, I walked around the area, taking photos of whatever caught my eye.

This image is from a carved relief on the west side of the base of the monument. It is quite large, as you can see in this photo on Wikipedia. I captured this using a Lensbaby on my Canon 5D.

To get the full effect of this image, you really need to see it larger, though. A larger version is posted after the jump.

Beautiful shot. Nice way to pull one figure out of the tumult.
