      Cheers Winnie. Just looked closer and underneath the skull it says Zhang Xiwei. A well known street artist?

    Not related to today’s pic but these pictures certainly made me think of you. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did

    If I were to tear the fabric of reality and take a peek at human world I would go ‘WHAT?!’ too.

    Scull? Oh, now I see it. I was focusing on a different part of the photo.

    Nice timing, chief.

      Cheers Jeffrey. I waited a while before I got somebody to look at me. Not quite the ‘What?’ look I was after, but a look nonetheless.
