Posted by Sidonie (Sydney, Australia) on 23 March 2007 in People & Portraits and Portfolio.
Meanwhile, back at Cirque de Soleil ...
This person (a stranger, I might add) was waiting to enter the Cirque de Soleil tent to see the next show. To shield herself from the sun, she put this thick knitted vest over her head. How much hotter was that? Why she was pointing, I have no idea. She couldn't see, in any case, and I couldn't hear what she was saying; and I was the only one within earshot ....

@Jerry: Bizarre, isn't it - yet the sort of thing we all resort to! Thanks for the visit Jerry!
very cute shot - you are right thought, I would think it would be much hotter under a knitted sweater... but, I guess everybody is different ...

@Evie: Thanks Evie - my humor at some else's expense, but she didn't know it at the time, which lessens the cruel deed ...
Maybe she was driven slightly mad by the heat ? Think about it... Bag on the head, babbling on incoherently and pointing at who knows what ... It's possible she was hiding from someone , ostridge style ! In any case, Great shot of a strange lady !

@Fred: Yes, sunstroke is common - in Oz slang it's called "gone troppo"! Thanks for compliment Fred!
