First in a series of three photos from the International Women's Day in Bergen.

A clothing store figured out that the International Women's Day would be a good day to pull a PR stunt with live underwear models in the windows. There were protests, obviously.

See also the second and third.

Nice shot, nice title: good photojournalism. I don't agree with Flumpie's comment about emotion - I think the contrast between the giggles inside and the earnestness outside is really what makes it :)

:aww: This rather cheers me up... I find it very symbolic of the relationship I have with my mother- I'm the little rebel child who's arsty-fartsy and has radical ideas, while she's the religious and modest aging woman who'll try at anything to supress her daughter's, as she calls it, "flamboyance" to protect her...
Hmm yes I tend to ramble a bit :p
but very nice photo, very poignant without being to extravagant :)
+fave for sure.

What a fun job.. sic.. Good shot, would've been better with some emotion
on the outside of the window too. :)

Moral: blondes don't have more fun, but underwear models do? Okay then, probably not. :)

hehe, leste litt om dette i VG, var visst ikke akkurat veldig populært...
Pent bilde uansett ;)

I love this. :)
The contrast of the half naked women in the window and the protesters (?) outside is exquisite!
