Montreal has some of the most artsy storefront signs in the world. Not content with the usual 2 dimensional retail signs, they add on these massive 3-D sculptures that extend out into the street, looming over you like modern gargoyles, only much friendlier.
In the winter, they gather snow and icicles; in the summer, pigeons.
I decided to photograph them now, before they are hidden beneath holiday decorations, as is often the case. (Click the images for full-size photos).
