Unexpected

by Jack Grant

When I took this photo below (click on the thumbnail for a larger, more detailed image) it was my intention to show how sensual the advertisements in in France are.

The reflection of me taking the photo of an ad behind glass on the side of a bus stop seems to have an unintentional artistic effect if you look at the full sized image.

Is it art? I hesitate to say yes, but I do know that often what we call “art” is the product of serendipity.

Very cool, Jack.

Nice to see you!

That is serendipitous.

Guerlain makes the only perfume I ever wear: Samsara.

Awesome!

Jack,

Not only is the advertisement a work of art - gorgeous photography, but when you blow it up, like you said, the reflections are wonderful……see lots of other imagery there… and YOU too!

That it was an accident does not lessen the artistic effect. You could not have done better had you planned it…
