A photograph of a grotesque situated on Lichfield Cathedral in Lichfield, England.  The photographs of these grotesques form part of a series.  These sculptures are grotesques rather than gargoyles as gargoyles are intended to be part of the water drainage system from the rooftops of churches and cathedrals. It is not known what purpose the 'grotesques' serve but they certainly get ones imagination going. Some have amusing expressions whilst others are quite hideous.
