These photos are not quite true orphans because I haven't forgotten them at all. I have been just posting other things. I like these candid photos of old fellas, particularly the third one.
One day, I spotted this old gent sitting outside a cafe. He was across the street, but I zoomed as best I could and even then, cropped somewhat afterward. What is he musing over? Is it a past loss, or is it perhaps that he's just waiting for someone to fetch his coffee?
In the coffee shop, I spotted two old goats having a stare-down.
I like the sepia shot but would like to see it cropped like the color photo which would convey more of the 'loneliness' or thoughtfulness of the photo.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the place in that last shot! Amazing!
You got me on the last photo! What in the world? AI generated?
ReplyDeleteNo, that is me in real life.
DeleteBeard mowing is my favorite. I think the first guy just needs his coffee.
ReplyDeleteThat 1st shot is sad.
ReplyDeleteEvery photo a story, especially that last one, ha.
ReplyDeleteThese are all delightful. I love your humor!
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures.
ReplyDeleteThere are some interesting people wandering along with us.
ReplyDeleteI love the red socks !
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely the cuter goat! Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteThe red socks in the first photograph really stand out. I like the lawnmower one - very atmospheric.
ReplyDeleteI have been having an awful time with my phone but I vote for the first photo. Set against the black background, the figure of the man at the coffee shop really stands out. I'd mute the color of the brick wall but leave it as it is. I am going to guess that the old man is not a sad man by nature. He looks very kempt and his red socks quite cheerful. I am betting it is a momentary pensiveness, brought on by the fact that he is at a coffee shop but there is no coffee in front of him.
ReplyDeleteStrongly recommend not butting heads with old goats.
ReplyDeleteThe one on the left or the one on the right?
DeleteThe first photo conveys a sadness. The lawn mowing guy conveys a man on a mission. The two old goats convey humor!
ReplyDeleteI like all of them! The beard lawn mowing guy is probably my favorite.
