Taking photos in markets

[Bill Brooks 1,326]

People objecting to being photographed in public is because of surveillance fatigue.

Here is an image of mine circa 1995.

Have you ever seen this one from 1999?

Cranberries album cover.

It features prominently here:

Unless that really is an actual giant eyeball tormenting that naked man, like his soul. In that case, I apologize.

😁

Maybe because Storm Thorgerson (of Hipgnosis fame) omitted the dropshadow. 😂

Could he have known yours? Or is it a case of great minds think alike?

Yours somehow reminds me a lot of number six btw.

I was unaware of the album cover when I did my shot.

 

It was The Prisoner closing that inspired me. The shot of Patrick McGoohan being chased across tidal flats by a giant balloon.

 

Made my man naked because there is no hiding anything from surveillance

 

We all stand on each others shoulders.
 
A few years after I made my image there was a Canadian movie made by an Inuit filmmaker called "Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner" that had a naked man, showing all of his naughty bits, running across a vast ice field. In a fit of patriotic fervor the CBC ran the film after midnight in the Inuktitut language, naughty bits and all.
