Forbury Gardens, Reading

A mixture of new and old. The tranquility of the Forbury is challenged by the construction work going on all around.

The lion doesn't seem to approve of the crane by the look on his face.

In reply to Ruth's comment, the Maiwand Lion has been there for 128 years to present date. I suspect the Lion will have the last laugh and still be there when the new buildings have long since gone.

I agree with Dave , the Lion is magnificent . I like the way Edward you have included a number of totally different structures.
