Unfortunately everything fades over time. I really like the reflection in the water and the humorous message.

Interesting document of the restrictive love of our society .Taht is fading away,but a new one should be elswhere. Now on my "Tourist" photo.As usual, you made very wise comments so you deserve my answer.My Nikon has not that trick,"portrait". But think a bit: you can sense this picture was shot near high noon.By the shadows.You can see light is all over the place.This is in Chile, not in Sweden or Tierra del Fuego.Now, 2.8 ? At a zilion photo speed ? What I could do , was to do the best I could,in computer.If you look at most of my shots,in Santiago or Buenos Aires, DOF is great, it could not be other way. When I shot at close I ask permission.When I use full- optical+digital-zoom ( about 210mm) I am too far, I say nothing.Other times ,from the distance I made a gesture asking for permission.In this case ,I was far away,it was a normal peaceful situation,just tourists asking police where some place was.If I am away,but the situation has some sort of delicate I never ask permission because I never use my camera.
