I'll do my best. ;-)
Btw, someone earlier in the thread (the email is now gone so I don't remember who) asked exactly what is was I photographed. It was a backlit advertisement on a bus shelter for a lingerie company, maybe La Senza. The whole panel featured a young lady in bikini panties and bra with body position and facial expression that left no doubt they were selling sex, not undies. I'm no prude and I certainly am not offended by depictions of sexuality. In this case I found it rather distasteful that they used a model who looked in her early teens and I thought the whole thing objectified women in an unacceptable way. In fact about a week before I took this one I took one of the whole image but couldn't figure out how to present it in a way I felt comfortable with. Then I saw the moustache and got the idea of what I was going to do. I don't know if the moustache was a political statement or just vandalism, but I liked it. And my photograph is intended as a political statement (but how you as viewer take it is obviously up to you). So there it is. In all it's glory. ;-) Thanks to all who looked and commented.
