Back in 1985 I was part of a college trip to Europe on the way to an archaeological dig in Jerusalem. I just discovered these photos were actually taken in Wurzburg, Germany.

It appears I took these “human studies” from a hotel window as I watched the locals going about their business. And one of them was watching me!

Photos attached include the original or similar frames as well as some artsy post-processing.

If anybody knows the guy with the camera, I'd love to see the photo of me he took ;-) The neighborhood is shown in the colorized street scene.

Nice idea. I like the drawing like processing of the first 2 shots.

Good luck finding the guy in the window.

Thanks for the feedback Runmonty! If he owed me money I would have found him by now... ;-)

Apologies to Austria! This was actually taken from the Hotel Strauss in Wurzburg Germany! You can see the days (sample below) were just a blur..

You can see the pigeon house at right and rooftop windows at left.

A quick pic of the original contact sheet.
