 This mural is based upon a well-known selfie that photographer Vivian Maier took of her reflection in a store window. Vivian was a talented street photographer and an interesting character whose work was only discovered and recognized after her death. If you get a chance, watch the documentary ?Finding Vivian Maier?. I can relate to Vivian and this situation well. Quietly waiting with my camera while unsuspecting subjects wander into my frame.

I loved that picture at first sight - funny how she is staring at her mobile. You have staged that great mural by Kobra in a wonderful way and choose the title perfectly.
Huge Congrats!
