michaellinder 16,613 Posted November 18, 2019 DG at first sight, I thought I was looking at a griffon. Having done a bit of quick research, I realized I was mistaken. The state is of a chimera. Its pose in conjunction with the building it's guarding takes me back quite a few centuries. It certainly has a ferocious look and a potential for roars that would shatter a decibel meter. In my opinion, you never considered posting the original, full color photograph. Accordingly, you made my day! - - My best always, miichael Link to comment
Saadsalem 74 Posted November 19, 2019 [[show-photo-18570432]] Daniel and Michael, my dears I have recently been in Turkey just three weeks ago, among the places I have visited is Chimera. I posted an image here about it, and now any one could imagine how powerful and true the title of this image, Daniel's title. Also one could imagine the imaginative power of the old human( in fact he is a recent human since it was only not more than 5000 years ago) when he invented the Chimera legend just because he saw a flame coming from the rocky ground by itself without being ignited by another mean. Thus comparing the original true image of Chimera with that of the human imaginations will draw a mind equation and settlement of the human power of imagination, thinking ,and thought sculpturing . I just hope I have made myself clear to you. This photo of you dear Daniel have enriched my thoughts so very much. Thank you so much . Link to comment
