It wasn't Buenos Aires where I found Art Roflmao (and it turns out he's the devil after all)

Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Took a little doing in the key words but I found the original being 'Art went to Buenos Aires' by Hauxon. If this is the match then that woodie must have been from a redesign:-) While the costume head may be made of wood and is worn in dances it is very far remote from being readily recognized for the typical Woodie's the are dancing in the original. I can see some connections because that is I am trying to see it from the artist's shoes. I have to be honest, but I think it still is too far a stretch to be a good pairing between the original and the redux. The photo itself is an interesting shot showcasing this costume head...it just needed a little something more, something to make it pop more visually for greater visual impact. Perhaps not having it slightly off center and someone in the backdrop or off to the side showing interaction with the main subject.

I like how natural this feels. Doesn't seem like a model or a set-- just real life :) Beautiful shot!

Gorgeous scene. If I didn't know any better, I'd say Vermont...

good blend of image and poetry, for once favoring poetry over image

Grats Robeart, I guessed this was yours! Now how'd you do the stamp cancellation thingy?

What a strange image. Not bad really, but, also - not sure what the heck the point is.
