*grin* ... Byron, perhaps?

A very nice capture. You've got to have a good eye to have noticed this one in the stone:-)

That's amazing...I would not have noticed - I did not notice - until I read your comment.

Good shot!

I can't understand who the poet is, not a Vogon one I hope. Is it really made on purpose? Interesting and elegand form of art.

Unknown said...

Yes, I can clearly see him! Great find! :-)

No, VP, it's a geological hiccup. My eyes saw, as Julie so aptly surmised, Lord Byron.
I love, Leia, that you saw a woman.

I guess I failed the test. I don't see anyone, just some nice geologic lines. Forgive me Lord Byron.

I love the abstract images which can be seen in marble and granite. My father works with granite ... you've just inspired me to visit the factory sometimes and take some shots of the raw granite slabs!

VP said...

It's a nice idea to post it anyway!

Wasn't Byron's mother a Vogon?

I think I shall start that rumour.
