Anatomically Correct Statues

I love going to Kinokuniya. It's probably the best bookshop in Singapore right now. Together with the fantastic 20% sales or even normal 10% discount for members, I think they offer one of the best deals in books and magazines.

But that's not the topic of this post.

Today, after browsing at Kino, I decided to walk over to HMV at The Heeren. So, I took the lift down to the 1st floor and then decided to cut across the main atrium in front of Ngee Ann City. It's not my first time walking across it, but I guess I never really paid attention until today.

Well, I saw the two lion statues and thought, hmm.. nice... then as I walked past the first one, I kinda noticed something sticking out between it's legs. I thought, hmm... probably some lights to light up the lion in the evening. But then, when I walked over to the second statue on the left of the door, I realized the 'thing' was missing. That's when I realized, the two statues were actually anatomically correct! Hmm... it's kinda disturbing.

I must apologise to those of you who might be offended by this post. It's not my intention to post statue porn. But I was really quite surprised and thought it was interesting enough to share here. (Click on pics to see larger pics)
