Shot this yesterday while shopping for a prom dress, not for me, but for my daughter.

    Wonderful, as usual. I keep looking at the guy on the sign and finally decided that he is living...

    I tend to think it's a dummy, but I wouldn't care to bet on it. The ambiguity of that figure really makes the shot for me. thumb.gif

    The guy on the sign has to be real, but even if he wasn't this shot works.
    If he's real though, major WTF goodness.

    Love your work Javier.

    Prom dress--shoot me. I have years before that happens and let me tell you I can wait.

    Thanks folks...He is real :)
    Here was the second frame I shot of this scene. This second frame was more uncomfortable for him, because after the first, he heard the shutter release and knew he was on candid camera lol, but it is, what it is. I left this one in color so you can see it in a different light. Almost as it came out of the camera except for a very slight crop to straighten and resize.

    Another winner, Javier. Is it real or Memorex?
    The use of a camera is similar to that of a knife. You can use it to peel potatoes, or carve a flute. ~ E. Kahlmeyer
    ... I'm still peeling potatoes.
