It appears to me that the man on right is inside a cafe and looking out the window into the early morning sun. The lettering on his shirt is the shadows of the lettering that is presumably on the glass window he is looking through. Part of what you see in the window is reflection (the small pitcher, for example) and part is what is going on outside (the woman walking down the sidewalk).
I think that part of what is intriguing about it is that the pose of the man and the fact that his eyes are cut off gives the impression that he is looking up and out of the window, as if he is stretching to see his expected, but tardy, breakfast partner. But the reflection in the window has the man looking downward, disappointed, with no sign of the hand. It strikes me as a somewhat Salvadore Dali photograph. Certainly anything but ordinary. Thanks for sharing it. On Mon, Mar 17, 2014 at 1:59 AM, Chris Mitchell <chris.mitch...@which.net> wrote: > I don't like it, but it's intriguing.
