Hi, Godfrey,

You know what?  I was in the middle of writing a post, saying how
little I liked this photo, then I looked again, and something changed.

I saw the little drama going on between the ladies on the right.  Then
I wondered if the fellows were looking at them.  Then I tried to
ascertain if the two men were walking arm in arm (it's really hard to
tell, but they could be).  If they are, they wouldn't be looking at
the two attractive women the way ~I'd~ be looking at two attractive
women.  Unless they're bisexual.

I could go on, but the ambiguity of this photo is really quite fun and
quite interesting.  I enjoy playing out the various scenarios in my
head.

In the space of about 15 seconds, the photo won me over.  

Technically wonderful, too.  I like the dof a lot.

cheers,
frank
