[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
He knew they were coming.
The strangers.
The ones of the prophecy.
He'd dreamt of them.
He'd learned the coordinates in a vision.
He knew who they were.
If only he could find the right frequency.
He would contact them.
He would be among them soon. . . .

Funny capture and hilarious note! I also like the ladders in the background, probably ready for the decisive moment of the landing, when people will need to climb in the spaceship!

Regards,
Marine

haha. Great capture of the moment and note. Extra bonus that the woman in the car is looking at the guy.

Well done :-)

Oh gosh I love this shot! The taxi reflection on the grey car, the woman looking out of the grey car, and of course this man checking the co-ordinates for the latest in-town extra terrestrial street-landing... But just look at his bag, it has a big smile on it.. Well, my friend, you sure made me smile :-)

The many faces of the weird and wacky world of the human..
"Have a nice day"!

Hugh: mystifying note, candid shot - a fine vignette of NYC urbanity. regards, c

You walking the streets of your city, pal.
You do the right thing.
Have your eyes wide open as well as the aperture of your camera (;-)))

Don't let them bite you.
Have a great weekend

Hi Hugh,
Funny picture, original shot too.
And you've put it in all the categories at the same time ;o))
Marc

Rarely can a shot be put in all the categories like this one:-))), seems you have forgotten humorous ?
Very successful composition, with that woman looking at him and kind of poetic too in my view.

Enjoy your Sunday
Michèle

Hi Hugh,
Funny Capture...
Excelent timing,
Love the title,
Great note
Got a big laugh :))))
Bravo!
saludos, jorge

Hi Hugh,
això és NY!! Molt ben captada aquesta escena amb aquest home fent una foto amb el celular, i un ambient típicament urbà, que els taxis grocs completen perfectament.
Aquest tipus de fotos em transporten a la meva ciutat preferida, on estic desitjant tornar per tercer cop.
Bona foto, espontània i molt ben realitzada, m'agrada molt.
Una abraçada,
Josep
