A while back I discovered a frame on a roll of Tri-X that I could not account for. There was no recollection of having made the photo, and the scene for this one was impossible to find in Berkeley, or anywhere in the San Francisco area. It looks like a double exposure, but the Leica is almost impossible to use to make a double exposure, and I'm sure I'd have remembered doing so. Anyway, here's the oddity:

I like the one you find inexplicable!
The juxtaposition of the subjects and the background is almost too perfect to have been accidental.
Hard to tell if it's a winter shot, the hiker in mukluks, or not.
Nevertheless, very enigmatic!
Do you know the woman? From what you said, I'd say you don't... Hmmm.
Both pretty cool shots.
I agree...
The second one moves me the most. Is the 1/2 face an image of Lenin? It almost looks like him (or maybe Jack Nicholson with a goatee?
<LOL>).
I'm sure I'm way off base with this, but the lady reminds me of an Eastern European peasant or villager. She looks quite frightened (hence the title, eh?), but a reflection makes it look like she's pointing to Lenin - or maybe even holding a pistol.
I think "Lenin" might look more like a Jack Nicholson movie poster bit! <g>

I find it quite thought-provoking! A terrific photo.
cheers,
