Been following your posts for a while now. This is the first time I have published a comment.
When you delve deep into the photography space, the space between everyday life and the silent world of the photographer capturing a moment in time. It becomes a deeply interpersonal relationship, which shows in one's photo portfolio, especially with the passing of time and a deeper understanding of visual elements.
I could go significantly deeper into this subject, but will not bore your readers with my ramblings about my art.
The photo embodies much of what street photography means to me as a fellow photographer.
My interpretation as follows -
The emptiness of a beautiful decaying space, suddenly awakened by the fleeting presence of a human passing through. The beauty as you say, is in the delicate, detail of the unseen by the many who will pass by without a second thought, or understanding of what they have missed, but what you have witnessed and captured for all eternity.
The image made all the more impactful through its use of black and white and slow shutter speed.
We often take for granted our ability to exercise our own will, to do things we want to do. Simple things like walk, pick up a glass, cross our legs, open our mouths to speak. There are people who cannot. Your photograph reminds us that we are fortunate and your image captures this luxury most of us have. Your image reminds me to be thankful, again, that I am one with the power to exercise my physical will. Thank you.

I absolutely love this image, not just the sentiment.
Thank you so much, Donn.
Thank you again Tomasz for sharing your photography & thoughts.
Always provide a 'pause' to consider why we make photographs & what they provide
at the time & reflection afterwards.
Have you considered making a collection of photographs & thoughts from
your posts?

An intriguing stimulus for story writing. Schools would love it too! Fight or flight!
