The Weight of Distance
by
lovemelvinComment by lovemelvin: This challenge meant a lot to me because it aligns closely with the kind of photography I love, aside from portraiture. I’m drawn to street photography and what I'd like to call "fleeting (in)significance" that captures human-ness, frailty, and the raw truths of reality the ugly, the sad, and the honest. The things that often live far from the spotlight, but still deserve to be seen, understood, and even celebrated.
I took this particular photo from a moving taxi. I usually keep my phone ready, and I happened to spot these two people by the roadside waiting for public transportation.
I’m also really happy to finally complete the 3 ribbon colors with this yellow one.
Thank you,
pennystreet, for your comment. I’m glad the image reminded you of that band’s really interesting story (makes me think that nothing is an accident, only the inevitable). To
posthumous, thank you as well for your existential reflection. It made me pause and think more deeply about people, distance, and existence, and meaning. Thanks too to
armando_m,
tate especially for the bump, and
blindjustice. And especially to Debbie The
Barroness for your celebratory comment and I agree, study of the times indeed.
