Caption required...

Posted by Damon Schreiber (Toronto, Canada) on 12 March 2007 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

This photo is not of the best quality, and I couldn't do much with the processing to redeem it, still, I do like the guy with his proud pose and his defensive shirt standing in front of the largest cathedral in Mexico talking with his mother. So, can anyone think of a suitable title?

High-Res here.

I'd have to go for ... We've got one much bigger than that at home ... ain't that right Mama?

@Helen: Thanks, Helen! But what would he be referring to, the flagpole?

It doesn't look like a penis mom.

Andrew from Toronto, Canada

i like the warm tones of the photo. what does the shirt say?

@Andrew: Thanks, Andrew! The high-res version reveals that the t-shirt says 'Masturbating is not a crime'.

I have to say since I know what the t-shirt says I have so many titles going through my head and none are probably appropriate in a public forum ; ) so my cleanest one is "So what's wrong with my shirt Ma?"

@Jen: Thanks, Jen!

Still from Valence, France

Interesting posture indeed! The cathedral is really impressive!

I LIKE the color and busyness in front of the Cathedral.
The Dude is saying, "No Mama, I do NOT know what 'masturbation' means. I flunked English. I just like the green with my eyes."

@Sylvia: Thanks, Sylvia, and that's a bit more like it. I was thinking something like, "Have you noticed how muscular my forearms are getting? Cause I have been working out lately." or "Stop pretending like you aren't listening; this is a really important message and I gotta tell the world!"

;) not the shy and retiring type is he. nice take Damon.

@Duncan Galbraith: I wonder. I did some research and found that these shirts were made by a company call Pornstar... Takes um balls to wear one of these. Maybe it's part of some punk manifesto that I'm not aware of: "Free the Circle Jerks!" or something.
