I wish I could upvote this twice.

Nice, but it would get annoying to see that every morning.

^ I disagree.

Something like that wouldn't last 5 minutes here. A horde of over privileged kids would appear with knives, paint, full bladders/bowels and make short work of it. Too much time on their hands and no real purpose with their lives.

These people probably have too little time in the day to earn enough money to be comfortable, and their purpose is surviving. I'm sure they're only too happy to be distracted by beauty.

I used to wake up to the same Vietnamese breast augmentation ad outside my apartment every day. Now THAT is annoying. That was years ago, and you know what? I drove by my old neighborhood and it's still there. I prefer the artistic expression to the commercial ad placement. Really, it's one or the other -- or nothing at all, but desolation and monotony of your every day life.

And somewhere in the world somebody's staring at a PETA billboard out their window who wishes they could be looking at an advertisement for boobs.

Somewhere, somebody has all the money and advantages they could want in life and is miserable while somebody else is living in a slum in Africa and believes she can do anything a human is capable of doing.

It's amazing how little our surroundings, possessions, circumstances or the scenery beyond our windows has to do with our outlook on life.

What astonishes me is how "blurry" and unfocused the images are until you see them by plane or helicopter or whatever was taking the pictures. Are these photographs or just a photographic quality rendition done with paint. It's a bit hard to understand but I take it that the women interviewed here is the artist.
It's a bit like the the tracings on the ground in Central and South America that are on such a massive scale that they would have been impossible for anyone on the ground to see them(back in the day).
