Written on June 17, 2013 by CB Driver in North America, Photo of the Day 
When I spotted this mannequin ‘couple’ in Kensington Market, Toronto, I just had to take their photo.
First of all, I’m a tiny bit obsessed with mannequins. Second, these looked a little bit like aliens. Third, I just loved the color contrast. The photo was already composed and ready to be taken.

Mostly, though, it was the way ‘they’ were hanging out–nekkid–on the side of this roof that got my attention. They seemed so at ease and comfortable with themselves. Like nudists in a nudist camp.
They were just too cool to ignore…

Your Thoughts/Reactions
So what do you think of ‘them’? Happy couple or in trouble? Or maybe ‘just friends’?
Could you have walked past without photographing them–or would you have stopped, as I did?
