my father was a barber for years. holding his arms up in the air to cut hair gave him back trouble and a pain in the neck... or was that me? either way, i love this pic for its human-nature commentary, its humor, all the diversity, its basic make-a-living-and-get-to-the-weekend kind of atmosphere. the barber pole paint inside, and the red flowers outside make a great link together. you have to have an eye for this stuff and you certainly do.
