I really don’t have the faintest idea what that guy was doing up there – the one standing in front of the red window. It’s not like it was a balcony. It’s not like it was balcony weather. I just don’t know. It may have had something to do with the spirit merchant on the ground floor or it might not have. Other than that guy, I suspect that no one else knows. Or even noticed what was going on.

It was one of those reflex photos – I saw it and made the shot without taking time to do stuff like composing it or anything. The moment was there and then it was gone, possibly because a bus drove by.
