Forbidden Fruit

[Brian Moore]

Years ago, while in an art class in college, my neighbor's daughter made a plaster bust. She has since got married and left home and all that but she left a lot of her stuff behind. (You know, the stuff she really cared about, but not enough to take, so leave it at mum and dad's to clutter their place up,...that stuff.) Among the detritus she left was the bust. A couple of years ago my neighbor decided the bust needed some fresh air, so he set it on his back garden wall, and there is has resided ever since.

The other day I noticed the bust was gazing longingly at an orange.

Brilliant Brian, at first I felt the fence was intrusive but the more I look I feel it adds not only to the comp but also to the context; great shot

Thanks very much, Kev. Councidentally 2 days ago my neighbor removed that fence. So now I have a direct photographic view of the poignant bust. I think I'll take another fotie. Thanks again, Kev.
