Sorry EU friends, I did not get signed a signed release for this photo. Pray I am never detained for GDPR violations. :wink:

Wouldn’t be a problem, nobody is the subject of the photo or in the foreground. Most of the people have their backs to the camera anyway.

What is with the half woman in the middle of the photo?

Happy birthday by the way. :partying_face:
