    Brian, this is an intriguing image. But I'm totally baffled what it is/was in real life!

    I like the composition and the lighting. Nice capture. But I have to admit when I first saw it my appreciation was a trifle deflected for reasons to which I say ditto to Bruce's mystification. Is there such a word as mystification? How do I know! But if Byron, Marlowe, Shakespeare and a whole lot of other mouldy old dead poets can make up words, why can't I?
