Jody, I was really surprised to read the title of this post. I found it racially and religiously offensive. I love Faces in Places, which generally has a great track record of being inclusive.
Would you consider changing the title? The Flickr user who originally posted the shot called it StraplessSunsetScareFace, for instance.
I must admit that I rather agree with Emily - it is a rather tactless title. As I took the photo I'm a bit unhappy about that and would prefer to see something a bit more sensitive replacing it. Any suggestions anyone?
I'm quite surprised - I didn't think it was offensive. I meant it in a Tonto / Lone Ranger type of way, but then perhaps I shouldn't take my cues from 1930s drama.
Anyway, it's changed now. Sorry - no offence meant.

Hi,
