hiding in plain sightby
PennyStreetComment by ubique: I'd have likely called this a
bvy too, had I looked at this challenge. But I didn't so I didn't. Why
bvy? Street, the snapshot as stealth-art, and the resonance of film.
Had I voted and commented, I'd have given this an unconditional 10 and explained why by saying that it's the
photograph's camouflage - the art masquerading as a snapshot - that is the most thrilling aspect of this image, rather than the literal reference to the nominal subject's hiding in plain sight. But I didn't so I didn't.
The relatively cool reception given this photograph is a dismal indictment of the lack of curiosity of the majority, and even worse, the lack of understanding of a photograph (I don't mean this photograph; I mean 'The Photograph', as art and as object).
It's quite wonderful. Thank you.
