Wandering around the shopping mall at Playa del Duque on Tenerife in the Canary Islands (looking for a loo to be honest!) I came across this quaint little arrangement of a lion's head fountain, set in tiled arch with flowers.
My wife Liz had disappeared into a shop for a few minutes, so I took the opportunity to frame up this composition before we continued our stroll along the coatal path.
