I assume it is undiluted by digital manipulation, so it literally does stand on its own head. It bespeaks a certain sadism or sexual exhibitionism to entertain the customers. The theme is hair that makes a difference. The juxtaposition of the posters' repetition and the lateral slats trisect and unify the elements. The winding vine that serves up and conceals the nude to make her even more desirable as a dish adds to the fantasy. It's a memorable experience in chiaroscuro. Never know what you'll run into with a Leica and fast lens handy. br - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
