The OP for this said it is Steve Jobs lighting a joint for his dad in 1972.

I'm a little suspicious about that being Steve Jobs -- the face looks rather feminine (but I don't have a photo to compare it to).
Also, does anyone recognize the wall decoration now that it is enhanced?
Cheers,

It looks to me like it might be the Chinese symbol Shou. They say it is often displayed inside of a circle and is the symbol for longevityTom.G said:

There are a few variations on how this is written. And I know nothing about the Chinese language.

One thing that comes to mind is that it's not real. We see what we see but it was a publicity stunt.BillTre said:
Next, fire escape. But why no handrails? It must be a stunt.

After a bit of detective work off @Arjan82's Google Maps link, it's art, apparently. There doesn't appear to be an English Wikipedia page, so here's the German Wiki: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kongresshaus_(Biel). The section titled Kunstwerk describes it. I'll let you drop it into your own favourite translator, but I think it says the doors are just stuck onto the concrete, which is actually a pillar separate from the building and I suspect doesn't even have any interior spaces.Ivan Seeking said:

Nope. No way. Not me.
It's nice from down here too...
So many so blue and so white...

Hey, no pain, no gain.Rive said:
Lovely!Rive said:
That's a gorgeous shot, I think!Rive said:
Very, very unusual color combinations, making it look a bit "unreal". Very nice!
Edit: If you have the opportunity to do more of those, I'd say go for it
.I really like the color combinations in that shot (dark blue sky, pale snow on trees, light green and yellow shades on the ground).
