Photo of the Day 07/24/10 - A Man and His Gator
You never know what you'll find on a wander. I was on business in Sarasota, Florida, a while back, and arriving in the intense 95 degree, 100% humidity, I set out to find a grocery store for water and supplies ... with my camera, of course. This Jack Dowd piece, one of a series of pieces in his Uncle series, obviously stands out and a fairly unique street art experience. I didn't sit down, though; never know what a gator will do.

That is fantastic! Was that gator live or a piece of the artwork?
Ha! Nope, it's not real gator. Definitely part of the art. This artist has work all over the city, apparently, and he's got a whole series of this character, this one called "Fighting Crime". Honestly didn't know anything about it until I did some research about it when I got home. He's sort of famous down there, I guess :)
