What's your story?
Have you ever wondered in how many strangers’ photos you’ve appeared? You could be that irritating person who got in the way of an almost-perfect shot or just a wallflower in the background.
That chance capture of you could be in a frame perched on a mantle, or stuck on a refrigerator door, or sandwiched in the back of a book. You’ll never know.
Grab any one of your photos and there are bound to be some unknown figures in the distance, near or far. You’ve probably never given them much thought before. Yet, they are likely still out there… living, breathing and going about their lives not knowing that they have brushed with yours. You’ll probably never see them again. And if you did, you wouldn’t be aware of your connection.
It’s funny to think that when you have your own image reproduced, it means something. But through the eyes of a person who is unfamiliar, you’re rather indistinguishable. How far your image may have quietly traveled is a humbling thought.
I’d love to know to which corners of the world my photo has been carried. And I’d especially love to know what kind of story it accompanies.
