Note: I have made an update to this image to crop it as suggested by Phil's comment.

An interesting image with psychological implications and/or religious connotations.....a photo to ponder.

Still another stunningly surreal image of urban street art in juxtaposition. The hugely incongruous scale of the abstracted head draws the eye, but the more we look at this, the more there is to think about. The head seems to be munching on the building, and it seems to be eyeing the Mary Poppins-like figure on the wall below as potential dessert. However the spikes on the wall and fence seem to be protecting the flighty figure from the predator looming over it. (I can't figure out the relevancy of the malibox and the Toyota parked in the lower right hand corner to the idea here, but they could easily be eliminated by cropping the forehead to the edge of its gashed eyebrow.)
