You aren’t allowed to take photos inside Sacre-Coeur (the church at the top of Montmartre), which is probably a good thing; otherwise I might still be there. But I made up for it by continuing my gargoyle-shooting binge all over the exterior. This one is a particular favorite because of the contrasting angles made by the curve of the dome, the columns of the windows, the gargoyle, the roof edge, and the other roof below — it’s almost Escheresque.
