Photo with the Prez
Qualifying as one of the more curious things I’ve been asked to do was this project. The young man wanted a photo of himself with George Bush – and asked me to remove the female colleague from the shot. Of course, in the real photo, I didn’t blur any faces but I thought it prudent for the purpose of my gallery. I couldn’t help but wonder what the story was behind this one – other than that her pink top clashes. But I don’t ask questions – it’s usually spouses and exes I’m removing! In hindsight, I wish I had buttoned both their suit jackets…
