I have often wondered, when I see a mask like this, whether the person is protecting his fellow citizens or are they protecting themselves?  One of my friends who is not sick thought that by donning one of these masks and taking the local bus to work whether people would avoid him and give him more elbow room.  

Well he does have shifty eyes but I also noticed that there are less reflections on one bag.

Jack, you have an amazing ability to find the extraordinary in the ordinary, and then to craft an image that allows the rest of us to see it, too. You are quite literally making me see the world around me in a different way, and I'm noticing things I never would have seen before. And these photos--they'll keep me smiling all day. Thanks!

Nothing short of brilliant!  It is the capture of 2 images with opposing sideways glances from the main protagonist which makes so!

Not many images make me literally lough out loud but this one did!  Of course when I eventually composed myself, it just left the one question hanging there in my mind...............what the hell was in that bag?

Excellent work!

You must have used a hidden camera to get this one, Jack. 

 

There has to be a story here, maybe even a novel or a screenplay.

Is this a permanent situation with his eyes or was he just scanning the air for incoming threats. Great contradiction between the peacefully sleeping man and the rather vigilant fellow.

I like the way you present it to us just like consequtive frames of a movie but i think you need to adjust the tones to match perfectly in each frame.

I can't stop laughing after reading the caption on this rather bizarre motif. Your sense of the comedy of ordinary life is so striking, Jack. They say that comedy is not the art of trying to make people laugh, but the art of making people laugh when trying not to.
