So I was driving through town and spotted yet another protest dummy sitting on a wall. This time at the local newspaper office. I shot a portion of a dummy before (365-164) at another location but I couldn’t figure out what the purpose was. Well today I discovered, from what I read on the dummy, it is an anti smoking demonstration. I took a few closeups but I liked wider shot showing the juxtaposition with the street. I think it looks a little odd just sitting there off to the side. And speaking of odd, at that very newspaper office there is a newspaper vending box out front that has arms sticking out of it. I thought that would be a nice complment to the dummy shot. Both with Pentax K20D, DA 17-70.
