A guardian watches over the Chen Family Academy in Guangzhou, China. The ornate decorations are part of a magnificent compound built by the Chen clan during the 19th century. Stay tuned for an upcoming photo essay on the complex.

Can’t wait to see more Stevo but if I were a betting man looking for protection, I’d go with Robin’s boxing cats…

Wouldn’t like to meet that on a dark night
Looks like he means business! Nice shot.
Awww, he’s cute!
I love gargoyles! But I guess they don’t call them that there.
He’s an interesting one though. I’m looking forward to your photo essay.
