Gettin’ Down in Chinatown

On By ResaIn Chinatown85 Comments

It was like a Chinese puzzle when I got home and looked at the pics.

The beautiful face above is the centre of a long (about 75′) low-lying mural.

There are 3 faces; 1 at each end and 1 in the centre, with wide runs of abstract art in between.

So I found one of the end faces.

The second one appeared to be missing.

Do photo apps eat photos?

3 sections was the best way I could figure to show amap of the mural.

Kind of a bookends puzzle.

They are the bookends to a center of people running. Running for causes is hugely popular in Ottawa.
