Visitor, Museum of Anthropology, Vancouver, Canada, 2009

I find the people who visit museums to be as interesting as the exhibits themselves. This man, taking a rest on one of the many benches in the museum’s great exhibit hall, seems to be talking to himself, just as the two huge heads are doing just behind him.

Welcome back, Tim. Thanks for al the comments. I love the face of the man and the faces of the masks -- all of them are extraordinarily expressive. I never noticed the cell phone at the right hand edge before.

It's almost as if the man has taken the tongue from one of the statues. I also like the person in the background with the cell phone - I project that she is also taking a picture.

Puns are always welcomed here, Rose.

I can't resist - what a wooden expression!
