I'd like to dedicate this image to our good friend Owd Bob (Dunstickin), who is quite ill and suffering at home. Bob asked that I report he has a very severe case of Chronic Bronchitis..with throat problems that has closed his thorax! The constant coughing and choking has made his body very painful...Hardly any rest and no sleep for 3 nights is making it rather tough for him. Top this off with a head cold and with runny eyes and nose, you'll understand his recent absence from Caedes. Lets hope and pray that he makes a speedy recovery so he can join us once again. I shot this gargoyle on top of Notre-Dame in Paris. I think he depicts pretty much how Owd Bob is feeling right now.

What Bob needs now is treatment with antibiotic. Hope his doctor has prescribed him that. The gargoyle at least has no runny nose! Bob will ge over it I am quite sure.

Thanks a lot Doug, for informing us about the medical situation of our Owd Mucker. Like to agree what Raj has said in his comment.
With a good treatment with proper medicines he will recover soon.
I like to wish him from this place all the best.
Very nice shot of this French gargoyle (without a sored throat, lol).

Excellent shot of the gargoyle Doug he looks quite pensive. Thanks for the update on Bob's health issues. BTW, is that blue-domed building the Tribunal de Commerce? :-):-):-)

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Nice post for OB Doug - I hope he's better soon - seems like everyone over this of the pond has got the flu or the sinus infection that comes after the flu this year.

I feel for OB. I have bronchitis right now, but nowhere near as bad as he has it. The coughing is driving me nuts though...great looking shot of the Gargoyle that appears bored to death from sitting there so long.

ALL IMAGES ARE VIEWED FULL SIZE
The grotesque seems to have it's eyes cast upon the city and is in a downcast mood, we don't see enough of these on Caedes, well done Doug.
Get well soon OB.

I do send my get well wishes to O.B. that can really get a person down, sounds like he has a bad case. Bob, just know we wish you a speedy recovery. Doug, I would say that this one was the perfect choice too. I like the perspective with it looking out over the city, you did good, and thanks for the info about Bob. tigs =^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
He's a thinker, probably thinking, nobody loves me anymore. Nice capture.

I agree with Mr. C and Raj. His condition sounds horrible and serious. Excellent capture! The Gargoyle really reflects how depressing it is to not feel well.
Bob, you are in my prayers.

If you stare at an orange juice container because it says, "CONCENTRATE"...you might be a redneck.
A great portrait of the gargoyle, Doug. Nice clarity and DoF in the photo.
