I like the subject! You may want trying cropping image on the right side a bit and adding some contrast.

Nice spot - I love to see pictures of gargoyles as they are an often overlooked form of art (and so often the artist manages to portray wonderful emotions in their faces or postures). POV you've used makes the most of the light and picture is really sharp. Could possibly improve the background, but that would require some intensive PP work to balance all tones.
Well spotted and well taken
Thanks for sharing

Hi Ben,
Very good observation of a gargoyle observing the world. What it sees seems well bored, indeed! I adore its facial expression. Good colors and textures. Well seen and done! Bravo! Annie

This is a wonderful composition. I like it a lot.
