What's Wrong With This picture?? E.P.

What's Wrong With This picture?? E.P.
1985  All rights reserved albeit no one would want this particular image because it is interesting only in being messed up ;)
End of day...not paying attention with scan of Kodachrome transparency which is obviously suffering from vibration of camera. It takes a relatively long time to scan the full resolution of a Nikon 2000ED scanner so I said to myself; what the heck, play with it.

What city is this, in what country?

Well it looks like the traffic is flowing on the right hand side of the street so that leaves many places BUT, wait....the vehicle looks like a double Decker from England, greatly found in London....lets enlarge the photo and now we get why it is not on the left side...this lazy photographer inserted the transparency incorrectly into the scanner as its writing cannot be read albeit English...

My neighbor and good acquaintance Nancy Rexroth world famous photogrpher known as the author of IOWA, a photo book from the 70s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Rexroth  tells me to NEVER show, put up a bad photo,only the good ones, which are known by many famous photographers to be a small fraction of their total output. However this is my photo diary, I am not trying to win awards or contests...this diary is MY STORY...far from all of it as some of my story would have some very disturbing images. More so than even the Nepal bus victims photo of those who  plummeted hundreds of feet to their deaths. ( I tend to exaggerate, but not by much)


My favorite model, the red double Decker of London...oops,...not a good day.....actually it is the one with the red leggings. E.P.; Elana Polin-Glassman....can't wait to go home to sleep ;)
