I call this "Oh, ma haya!!". It is done from a photo I took on Third Street in Memphis, Tn. When I asked the young girl if I could take her photo, She grabbed her head and that's what she shouted. I'm very proud of this and think it's one of the best things I've done.
Here's the original photo. Notice I added the awning and cooler, but it's still true to the original, I think only better. That's the great thing about doing something original, I can choose to make it what ever my imagination tells me.
