I’ve been asked to photograph the Viking Statue at Jarrow for a text book of some description, so went and did that this morning. Of course I had to use one for todays post too. 🙂

Designed by Colin M Davidson and dating from 1961, they are a reminder of the Viking raids on the Monastery there in 794. I wrote about that HERE.

Wow, that picture almost seems like the statue is about to come to life, especially with those ominous clouds above. Love this one! It’s almost something straight out of a movie! 😊
