Amazing shot. When I was there I couldn't quite see a good angle (plus there were lots of other tourists). Did you see the guy on the bridge with the birds who let's you take a photo, and then demands money afterwards?
I was there a few years back and learned that there's two animals, a lion and a pig. Apparently, according to legend, the artist was stiffed on payment and made the outline of the sculpture a pig.
