January 8

Kiss at Sunrise

"Unconditional Surrender is a series of sculptures by Seward Johnson resembling a photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt, V–J day in Times Square" - wikipedia

The statue is 25 feet tall. I took the photo while waiting for some friends this morning to go on an architectural photo walk.

A different and effective view of this event. I might have mentioned that I was in downtown Manhattan that day the picture was taken. y friend and I wanted to kiss the girls but at 13 years old we didn't dare to try.
