two awesome shots found at Instapundit

fantastic metalwork

About the above image, the AI god says:

This item is a decorative wrought-iron porch light featuring a detailed dragon figure, located on the Casa Bruno Quadros building in Barcelona, Spain.

Designer: Josep Vilaseca
Location: La Rambla, Barcelona, Spain
Creation Date: 1885
Style: Modernisme (Catalan Art Nouveau)

As for the above, the AI god claims:

This image shows a public art installation known as the "Undulating Dragon" on a building in Clayton, New Mexico.

Artist and Origin: The metal sculpture was designed and installed by artist Bennie Duran in the mid-1990s.
Design: It is a Chinese-style dragon made of metal that appears to snake in and out of the brick wall of the building.
Location: The sculpture is located on a building at 315 N. First Street in Clayton.
Status: The building was formerly a gallery and a trading post, but is now abandoned or vacant.

These are both awesome for different reasons. The second shot reminds me of the "swimming dragons" I frequently pass by on the Nakdong River trail. See here and scroll down.
