Smoke break, just as I was taking some shots of the reflections, she just had to come and distract me .


Prior to the blonde, there was this fellow also enjoying a smoke break. And if you don't believe I was photographing the reflections, here is the evidence.


School kids that accosted me today.

In an art gallery not on the street. I had the impression that this fellow wanted very much to stare at the painting, but was embarrassed to get caught doing it, so he was working really hard to look out a window yet he could not tear himself away from those naked nymphs. BTW: the girls are pulling an aroused satyr into their pool where he will drown if they succeed (satyrs allegedly cannot swim), and all of the nymphs are the same model, so we get to see her from just about every angle.. Scan from a chrome, original probably taken in the 1980's. Scans never look quite as good as the original chromes.

The weird part is the lighting coming from the original. The painting is near correct, but the blue light from the window has created a slight purplish cast to the man's face, mostly under his chin, and he winds up with strangely bi-colored trousers. Notice also how the wall changes color from just off the right side of the painting's frame to just off the left side.
