One of your more thought-provoking shots in a while, Sam. Nice framing/cropping as well.

How odd. A great shot. Nicely done.

Very cool! I hope you took another photo without the paper cup?

Lol.. the rest of Jan Vermeer and the rest of Burger King, great shot.

Sam, if I'm being honest, and I always am. This disgusts me. I think it's inexcusable when people ruin beautiful artwork by drawing crappy drawings around them. A LOT of work went into designing that burger king cup. A lot of people worked very hard and took a lot of meetings to decide on the final gorgeous mustard yellow bun colour, and it's all ruined because some morron got himself (or herself, woman can suck as bad as men. (That's what she said.(How many of these can you put inside one and other?))) Anyway someone got a piece of chalk and drew on the sidewalk, congratulations, you did the same thing my four year old did. So I guess now I'll be telling you to go to your room without dinner. Next time you want to make art, make sure it's also usable as a product!

HA! Coop, that was great.

Nice photograph, whoever drew this picture though didn't capture the suggestive tongue peaking out of the girl's mouth from Vermeer's original. One of the most sensual pictures in my opinion thanks to that tongue.....

As usual, Coop's brilliant insights go beyond the banal accolades and praise and bring us to the real crux of the issue highlighted by this photograph. Bravo, Coop!!

I LOVE this shot!
Did you place the cup there yourself or was it 'as seen'?

Posted by One Way at July 27, 2007 08:40 AM

Funny and sad.

Posted by eli edmundson at July 30, 2007 05:29 PM

Good spot!

interesting find, and oddly disturbing.

Did you at least pick the cup up and throw it out afterward?
