Street report #66

The other day in one of his articles Hive account@rostik924 commented that a photo from the street should have a story. To tell the truth, the story is not in the photo, each viewer has to create the story in his/her own head. And that's why each photo can generate a different story for different viewers. Because we're all different, we all have a different view of the world and different experiences. What do you see in the first photo? Is the gentleman looking at his surroundings in disbelief the jealous partner of the lady in green or the caring father? Or are they complete strangers who just happened to be in the vicinity in the photo?

And is this "search for a story" even necessary? I don't know if the following photo has a story, but I'm pretty sure it has atmosphere.

Actually, when there are two people in the photo, it's much easier. Two people, that means some interaction, some communication. And there's already some kind of core story.

And that communication can be without words.

Some of the photos look romantic like the previous one, some are a bit more action-oriented. Like two friends who look like they're getting ready for something.

When you're selling something, you should know as much about it as possible. That's certainly what the two salespeople in the booth are saying to themselves as they try out their wares.

And the lady with children in the last photo looks like a mother of several children, tired and happy at the same time. Or is she a teacher? A governess? An au pair?

However, everything can be different. All the stories I fabricated for these photos could be completely different in reality. Because it's all in our heads and because we all have a different view of the world and different life experiences. But that's actually what I wrote at the beginning.
