The street scenes captured in these photos remind me life is not as complicated as we would believe it to be nor as simple as we might hope it to be. Sometimes events occur simultaneously on multiple levels.
It would have been interesting to see how many others I could have captured passing this same point as the young woman above busily waters her plants, but I could only spare a few moments.
That is a cool series of images, Earl. And, yes, I wonder what other images you could have discovered by staying around for a while.
There probably would have been a number of additional images if I’d had the time…but others were waiting on me. Thanks, Monte
Life certainly happens on many levels!
Steve, yes it does…with or without our approval. :-)
I like the series, it’s an interesting view, the ambiguity of life and how interestingly our lives sometimes coincide.
Hi Ove, yes sometimes the best we can do is be observers…one reason I believe the act of photography can provide useful life skills. Thanks!
There could be some interesting themes in this – oblivious intersections?
Mark, I took this first photo because I found it interesting on it’s own and then a few moments later I saw the second scene and realized there was something larger…a theme here. I like the oblivious intersections description. Thanks!
I think you need to go back to this same spot, at the same time of day, record what transpires and post more photos. I’ll wait here.
Ken, wait right there–I’ll be right back! :-)
You created an interesting “place to view and shoot” that had strong potential. Nice job and perhaps a future idea to explore.
Don, I may explore the concept but this particular spot was in Italy so the location I’m afraid is lost to me. Something to think about… thanks!
