A couple of weeks ago, Tristan sent me an email: "Are there any Ganeshas there?" In a word, yes. Most of these were just randomly spotted on the street, and most are 6 to 12 inches high.
Without further ado, for Tristan and all the other Ganesha fans out there, ganapataye namaha!
In wood over a doorway

Above the Coke cooler in a cafe


Above a temple entrance




So ancient he's barely recognizable

With his mouse

With Ardbeg, the Scottish highland coo





Above the entrance to the temple at Pashupatinath, an important Hindu pilgrimage site

In repoussé on a door

Even in Bhoudanath, a major Tibetan Buddhist temple





Gates on Kantipath in Kathmandu

Even on menus:
