Seems to me one of those "When did you stop beating your wife?" questions. I
think if you had posted it with the cone,
nobody would have noticed or commented. However, encountering it with the cone
in mind, It's the first thing I see,
seems important, at least at first, and pulls my attention away fro the image
proper.
To me, the two stories in the image are questions, "What is called Concorde
now?" and "Where is that guy going?" The
cone is darkish ,and doesn't call attention to itself.
Sure, asked the question before seeing the image, then seeing it both ways, I
sort of like it better cloned out, but I
don't think it matters. Close out the question. :-)
