sometimes a wall looks back. a glance frozen in lime and pigment pierces through the noise of the street.
she walks by, unaware of the weight of the painted gaze.
or perhaps she knows. and still walks on.

he walked past the wall without seeing it.
but the wall kept his shadow.
and a tree.
and a lamp post.
and everything he didn’t mean to leave.

on a sharp midday in palmaâs plaza mayor, shadows staged their own quiet protest. a man pauses, hand raised, as if shielding his thoughts. above him, the peace symbol cast by a hanging lantern appears not drawn, but summoned. the street becomes a canvas, light a witness, and the passing of time something almost audible. in that split second, the silhouette and its twin on the wall blur into a single presence â as if the city itself were listening.

i watched the man pass by, quiet and fast, while the other sat still, as if waiting for time to begin again. light crawled across the floor like a memory unsure of its shape. the hallway didn’t end, it just kept repeating itself.

This candid street photograph captures a poignant moment in Kyoto, Japan, where a mother interacts with a postal box while her child, seated in a bicycle carrier, observes the surroundings. The composition highlights the contrast between the vibrant red of the postal service backdrop and the muted tones of the mother’s attire, creating a warm yet dynamic visual narrative. The juxtaposition of the child’s curiosity and the mother’s focused action tells a story of daily life, emphasizing themes of family and community in an urban setting.

in the vast, echoing expanse of berlin brandenburg airport, a lone traveler is caught in the soft embrace of solitude. her silhouette, outlined against the muted airport light, tells a story of quiet anticipation. shadows stretch long and silent, merging with her thoughts as she reads, lost in another world. the stillness around her amplifies the hum of distant engines and the soft murmur of announcements, creating a moment suspended in time where waiting becomes an introspective journey.

captured in port d'andratx on mallorca, a charming small harbor, this black and white photograph portrays an elderly man sitting alone, his gaze lost in the distance. the tranquility of the surrounding empty chairs and tables at the nearby patisserie adds a layer of solitude to the image. his reflective posture and the vacant look suggest a moment of deep contemplation or reminiscence. this scene, quietly vibrant with life's subtle narratives, invites viewers to reflect on the quiet, unnoticed moments of life that are rich with emotion and storytelling.

A moment to reflect -
All my years past
And how many remaining
