Old Gargoyle

Our assignment for this week in class is to take photos of textures.  I'm not sure exactly how we're going to use them yet, but we'll see.  Anyway, the textures that I took today weren't fabulous.  I was trying to use my 100mm macro without a tripod, and, as usual, realized that I just can't do it without a tripod.  While I was scrounging around the yard looking for interesting surfaces, I came across this old gargoyle that was part of a broken fountain in our garden a long time ago.  It now sits back in a hidden area with my potting bench, and it's slowly being taken over by English ivy.  I liked the patina on the old concrete.
