Truly exceptional. In fact, this should headline your show when you have it.

I never got around to specifying just what it is about this photograph that so impressed me. It's this: The most visually prominent player is the Magritte poster, next most prominent is the wee girl, and third is the Monty Python Lady. So you'd think that that would be the order of their respective contributions to the effectiveness of the photograph. But I reckon it's actually the reverse; the lady is the real star of this show (she's the destination), the thumb-sucking kid is the link and the Magritte poster is the start point ... the establishing shot, in cinematic terms. Together they're a triangle, but the lady agog is the apex. The other triangle is the three minor players, all facing away from us and positioned with a studied randomness; just another layer of wit & whimsy.

And the whole picture is the perfect illustration of the Magritte quotation in your Comments section. The promise of meaning ricochets around the frame in these overlapping triangles, and never does get settled. Meaning is tantalisingly close to our grasp – teases us – but escapes.

I loved this picture. Again, thank you.

I came back looking for this, wondering who you are. I too struggle with patience. Keep on leading the way.

Wonderful moment here. So much going on, and perfectly laid out in front of you - kudos on seeing and capturing this, it's art in three dimensions brought into two. Not only that, but it illustrates 'obscured' in so many different ways.
