The top image is part of a very visible campaign to sell underarm
deodorant. I first saw it as a TV commercial. The larger than life woman
is saying something to the tiny little man. She laughs and smiles a lot
and is very jolly. It struck me as refreshin g to have such an ample woman
portrayed in the media. When we were on our way up to Doi Sutep, the
northernmost temple in Thailand, we saw the other woman, a food vendor,
lounging in the midday heat. I had to take a picture and juxtapose the
two. When Eric motioned that we wanted to photograph her, she just smiled
and laughed. After I saw a few reclining Buddha statues, I suddenly
realized why that position looked so familiar!
