I see this mural almost every day. It's interesting to see a picture of it here on DA.

Most don't realize, I have changed the image 4 times, each time I have had Gayle more absorbed into the picture (as I completed stages of editing) so that now she is a part of the whole image, not just an onlooker.

So glad I fit into your puzzle Bonus, or maybe it was the other way around???? The puzzle fit around me... At any rate it was a lovely walk back in time! I feel like "Where's Waldo?" but it became "Where Is Gayle?". I agree with ya need a little wine to see me. Cheers!

Gayle is in the photo? I've looked at every person in the picture and can't find her. What have you done with her, you beast!

Lift a horizontal ruler from the bottom of the pic to slowly cover the pic. The first set of feet that the ruler hits, are Gayle's.
Black jeans, off white shirt, dark brown vest, short sandy hair, centre foreground of pic looking at a woman in blue dress, orange sun hat with a blue ribbon.

Oh good heavens. That is NOT the Gayle I remember. Sneaky, guys. Very sneaky.

Me, sneaky? nah... that's the other guy!

Oh right. How is he anyway? I sort of miss that old reprobate.

I think he disappeared up his own fundament - his raison d'etre became irrelevant.

Ah, but the mystery, man, the mystery. What is life without it?

Sometimes people retire in infamy, anonymity or ignominy.
Sometimes we are never sure whether they are dead or alive, or will pop up in some offshore haven, basking in their riches. We have more in common my friend, than I dare relate.

Oh so intriguing. Should I ask Jon (or Marcus or Lydia when she gets out) if our mutual friend has been seen playing Bacarat at an island casino?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Gambling is for lives and bacarat is only for money - my friend would bore to easily.
Look at the seats of power - somewhere - you will find him there.

Oh so he's a power addict, hmm? In my humble -- and broke -- opinion, money will give me both of the other two in pleasing satisfying portions. In fact, I would venture to say that without money, you cannot achieve the other two.

He's not a power addict, he's merely a pawn...

and one by one, back in the closet lays...."

Ahh, it has been too long since I relax with a little Omar. Must get back to that again soon. You reminded me of the power in that language.

Marvelous shot, Sir. The brickwork gives an amazing sense of depth.
Is that Gayle stepping back into history?

She is a puzzle, that woman... I kept watching and the more I look, the more she fits in there..
Thanks Steve

She does indeed. And it makes for a great visual joke, because you don't see her at first. Having a live figure gives a sense of scale. That mural is immense!

Too easy, it was just there, mind you the perspective correction was a bit of fun, and the absorption factor ... now you see her, now she's right in there.
