Inspiration: I took this photograph during New York Fashion Week, which seems like ancient history now. Anyway, much like the guys in "Cooltitude", these girls (about four of them) marched into the "back door" area of the tent, paraded their mustached look without a word and then summarily marched away, stomping down the cobblestone path as if it were a haute couture runway. Ahh . . . the things that one can do with a splash of confidence and dollop of "devil may care" attitude. That said, I have no desire to sport a mustache. On a related note, I wish I could be at Paris Fashion Week right now. But, alas, I must head into the office . . .

Don't have regret. I am in Paris and I assure you I can't see a single mustached girl. Thanks God.

Usually women with moustaches are rare. I mean, a bit of hair, but that is a serious tache...hehe
Very nice image. Always a visual pleasure to stop by!

That's a lot of hair. But the composition made the shot as usual.

very interresting pic....
why wearing a moustache?

Not sure why. I cannot say I would choose a mustache to get attention . . . why not super cool shoes, you know? Or fantastic evening dresses in the middle of the day? But facial hair? Who knows. It's New York. Anything and everything odd happens here.

I like how you juxtaposed foreground and background creating a smooth tension between the two as they go in opposite directions. Again, perfect timing and good seeing.

I also see this never before. The composition with the second girl in the background is fantastic.
