This was around Christmas, 98-99. Shot it with an Nikon FM2, 35mm lens, Tri-X 400ISO film.

The reflection off his silver outfit was just enough to bring him out.

This guy used to be one of a kind out there. Now there are several guys, sprayed silver or gold, and not nearly as interesting.

Heh, I still see him out there from time to time :-D I've not seen many others sprayed like him and standing "sculpture", but I'm not down there very often, only a few times a month, I like to stay away from the crowds, hah!

Near Arizona

He's still there. Just north of Arizona. I saw a copy cat of his in Barcelona and another one on Fisherman's Wharf. He's the original.

Nice photo, Doug. Thanks for posting it. Black and White is a perfect treatment for the scene.

I was going to be upset with you for not stopping by to say hi to us here in LA LA land. We have so many OPF'ers here, we could have made a party.

Kathy: this was taken over 10 years ago, or I would have stopped by.
