Colourvision

Chiller · Jul 4, 2006

I was strolling downtown and saw this dude all painted silver. He was posing in front of this ever changing sign, so I took up position, tossed him some coins to strike some poses and waited for an interesting pic to appear on the sign. He never flinches, and can stand motionless for so long, I was getting tired.

It is so good it looks shopped. Brilliant capture. What were the chances Colorvision pops up on that screen

Very good one of the street performer ... he is so "b+w" in his being silver.. and the colourvision so colourful ... best background you could get (what more did that changing sign have to offer?). Very worth the wait!

You could rejuvenile our "Street Performers" thread in the Photo Themes with this one. You should be able to find it through the Index threads and all their links ... thus even very "old" threads can be found easily.

Great shot! There was a guy doing the same thing at Carlos 'n' Charlies in Cancun when I was there, only he was painted in gold glitter. Everyone thought he was fake at first, until he jumped out and scared them. It was awesome

Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me :-(

Thank you so much for all your kind comments. I appreciate it.
JJP...this is one of those large advertising boards. It changed constantly, and I was pretty lucky to have Colourvision flash up.

Thanks again.
