Kolkata feels Kafkaesque; daily life slips easily into the surreal. These images I took in 2001 Howrah Station examine the tension between the station’s rigid systems and the people living on its platforms. An observation of a community that remains unseen, where a transit hub becomes a home.
A sleek Porsche sits parked next to a day laborer’s heavy handcart, while business women scout the wholesale stores for the best bargains. Different lives, different struggles, all meeting on a single street corner. This is the raw heartbeat of the city.

Each reflection adds a new layer, blending the world behind the glass with the world in front of it. A simple street scene turned into a complex visual riddle.

A wall, a door, a few plants, and the rugged tail of an old Eastern Bloc jeep. In photography, these are the only essentials you need to tell a story.

"A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you, the less you know." — Diane Arbus 📸✨
True photography shouldn't just provide answers; it should keep the questions alive. What story do you see in the frame?

@streetsoul.bsky.social "Street photos of people just walking by billboards are boring." — Eric Kim.
Hard truth or just one man's opinion? I'm curious to hear what the photographers on Bluesky think about this common trope. 🌤️

Na 'n eerder artikel van @saraberkeljon.bsky.social c.s. over de extreemrechtse jongerenvleugel van FvD, komt de @volkskrant.nl nu met 'n even goed artikel, waaruit blijkt dat Forum de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen ingaat met lieden die verre van vies zijn van racistische en antisemitische opvattingen.

True street photography doesn't provide answers; it invites the viewer to wonder what lies beyond the frame. It's fascinating to see how the intersection of automotive obsession and the primal urge to mark one's territory carves out such unique, accidental rhythms in our urban landscape.

A lingering soul of steel in the heart of Kyustendil. More than just a machine, it’s a testament to the art of care—where engineering meets a lifetime of devotion. Some things are not just owned; they are cherished.

Even in street photography, a high vantage point has its advantages. Captured here from the train traveling from Sofia to Kyustendil. 🚂📸

Just three people, a quick chat, and something on a screen. 📱✨ Love the simplicity of street moments like this.
