A few years ago I took the following photo as part of my http://www.photography.ca/Forums/general-photography/19778-windows-project.html

The mural depicts the members of the Hilltop Hoods, an Australian hip hop group. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilltop_Hoods They are huge in Australia and would be the biggest and most celebrated hip-hop artists in this country, and have been for some time.
Anyway, earlier this week I was approached through Flickr with a request to buy a high resolution version of this photo to go on the wall of the persons home. Obviously I was flattered that someone would want to put one of my photos on their wall, but was a little perplexed as to the choice of photo. I concluded they must be a big fan of the "Hoods".
Subsequent communication has revealed that the request is actually from the founding member of the group. I went from feeling flattered to somewhat excited and overwhelmed. I understand that the mural is the real reason for the interest, but I can also say it is quite humbling to potentially have one of your photos on the wall of Australian music legend.
