Just before our own cruise ship departed from Rio’s harbor, a huge Spanish cruise ship pulled in next to us, its sides decorated with incongruously gargantuan painted figures of happy vacationers. Standing on the pier, I moved in on one of those figures, using a 24mm wideangle focal length. The four deck high figure appears to be leaping in joy. It has already jumped, and now must somehow leap over a rope that anchors the ship to the shore. By isolating the figure from the rest of the ship, I make it incongruous, and by including the rope that seems to block its path, I intensify the incongruous nature of this image.
