Almost Nice: Grasse 3


This is my favourite photo from the Grasse series. I like the shape of the lamp against that blue sky, the tower was a bonus.
The flag carrying animal is a town symbol and appears on all the lamps in the old town; unfortunately the first time I noticed it I was reminded of a pub in the UK called The Lamb and Flag that I used to frequent...

Which reminds me - what's with those funny British pub names ;-)
And why would a lamb carry a flag?

Love that sky!
