The participants, men and women, fat, thin and of various races that make up the mosaic of ethnic Miami, posed for several hours to four different photo sessions in the hotel garden, balconies and pool.
During the photo session, the hotel was to restrict entry, but it poses one of the first was held on the balconies of the building, led by Tunick, from the heights in a huge crane.
