I took the picture below of a live installation in October with my pocket camera.
I changed the colour of one of the talking ladies at the back from red to blue to
make it less prominent. The protesting group is called boat-people.org and
performs outside art galleries all round Australia. In the light of recent events,
the subject of the picture is somewhat controversial and the image speaks for itself,
but decisions about people and emigration are seldom easy.

Interesting image, but I wonder if I should point out that each of these ladies is signaling that she is in distress? Did you offer to help them?

No, I didn't Gary. It did not occur to me.
In fact, I just took it as a human installation
protesting at the plight of the boat people
and standing for human rights. You just
added another dimension...

Looks like they are waiting for an interview for the position of "Aussie STIG"

Nice capture Zafra. Very unusual protest indeed! I agree with changing the color of the background lady as it would distract. Maybe the lady in the background could also wear the Queens colors?

Zafra52, thats a nicely composed shot and that on its own makes it a winner

Thank you all for your kind comments.
