Humanization, Buzios, Brazil, 2010

A street artist has humanized the walls of a drab utility box, transforming it into a whimsical human cartoon. I caught the light at just the right time of day – early morning. The low angle of the light softly sculpts the painted panels with shadow, making the cartoon figure seem as if it is just waking up.

I was delighted with the light here as well, Carol. It gives form to the image -- you can almost hear it yawn.

Your image certainly does bring this wall-character to life! The light has everything to do with it, as you select the perfect time to capture. The wall looks a bit disheveled as if just awakened.
