Looking for My Mona Lisa

[skyring]

I've got this photograph loaded on my iPhone, and every time it comes around on the slideshow I think, "By jingo, I love that photograph!"

Looking at the photographs I took at the same time, I realise how incredibly lucky I was. It really was a horrendous environment for zoom photography without a tripod.

Anyway, this is probably a long shot in another sense, but I'd like to find the young lady in the photograph. I think she'd appreciate a copy of the shot - it was a special day for me, just looking through the Louvre, and she probably thought the same. Maybe she's sighing over memories of the trip, just as I am.

I've assembled some clues, some photographs, and Thuh Photo into a Facebook group. I'm also trawling through Flickr to find people in the same place at the same time. Mabe we can find her. Wouldn't it be fantastic to put a smile on her face?

Here's the group: Looking for Mona Lisa

I'll post it on my LJ publicly, and somewhere on my Flickr account, maybe in vicar-of-dibley's Lurkation group?

Between all of us, surely there will be enough publicity that she will see it eventually! (Maybe she's a Columbia student?)

Columbia Sportswear, rather than Columbia University, though of course there is a good chance that studants and faculty prefer Columbia clobber over (say) North Face.

Bless you for doing this for me!
