JC – I understand that there is a bit of pushback re the nackte Männer – not so much the giant fellow out front of the Leopold but the posters of the three athletes that one would see all around town.
That guard looks like she’s reaching for her Taser! Terr’st!
Wow, you noticed that was a female? I had to look twice.
You always look worried when I see your picture.
Cheers,
Norm.
…moments before the grand art heist.
So grim.
More focused!
Reblogged this on Due to the lack of experienced trumpeters, the end of the world has been postponed for three weeks.
Nice to see a photo of you, Prof. Coyne. What camera is that?
The one to be replaced!
CO – Very James Bond of you.
That guard is about to tell you “No Pictures!”
I’ve seen that look before!
No, pictures are allowed (without flash) in the Leopold.
So, we see that Jerry has such a…ah…fertile mind, that it even sprouts flowers!
I like the idea.
That camera tends to underexpose, and I’d like this shot to be a fair bit brighter. I’d also crop a bit differently (not as aggressively) and straighten it out a bit (there’s some keystoning going on).
Jerry, if you’ve got the original out of the camera (assuming that’s not what you posted) and want to email it to me, I can see what I can do in Photoshop….
Cheers,

I think this is a really good photograph; it’s well composed and seems to tell a story. What story? That’s for every observer to figure out. Perhaps the elements are symbols. Or not. You look at it more closely, and think about it.
Art.

Imogen Cunningham you’re not.
Polite you’re not.
