“Woman and Man” Photograph


I love photographs that could be telling a story but one that is not obvious. It’s more about creating a mood or feeling than illustrating a plot.

In this photograph something is going on but we don’t know what which makes us react more to the expressions and interaction between the two people in order to interpret the scene.

From what I remember when taking the picture, the truth is a little disappointing in this case. The woman was a market stall holder busy arranging her wares and the man had just walked passed but then half-turned around as if changing his mind about where to go. They actually had nothing to do with each other.
