I never really liked this picture because the way it intruded the privacy of a stranger. I also didn't like the feeling of humiliating others. But pictures do change over time.

This particular crotch now has me groping for words. I have always found photography to be a profoundly sad activity.

I wished people somehow could project their dreams on the walls outside. But I just snapped a pic- ture and quickly moved on.
