Sunset Park, Canada

Man, you gotta give it to this couple who went for quickie in Canada's sunset Park. 

So many things make this photo great. The idea of sex outside is great. Having sex in the warm sun under a blue sky is great. Having a quickie is great. Doing it in a public space where you're not supposed to is great. 

But here's the question: somehow this moment was documented. There are three likely possibilities. 

1) Perhaps most likely--they decided to have a quickie out in plain view, at the risk of someone catching them. Someone did catch them, and had a camera. That instant voyeur snapped the photo of them going at it and then posted it for others to enjoy.

2) They wanted to have a totally epic outdoor public quickie and wanted to document the moment. They brought a digital camera with a self timer and a tripod. Setting up the camera, they quickly went at it, their fun captured for their own records. Or to post online to prove they were so brave.

3) They wanted to do something totally bold. They not only had an outdoor public quickie, they also handed their camera to someone else (a friend they'd invited, or a passerby) to step back a few yards and get a good wide shot of them and the city behind them.
