The shadow

While I was walking around the park, looking for interesting people who were playing with light and shadows, I suddenly came across a man sitting quietly against an old brick wall.He was casting a big shadow next to him, and his whole presence showed how tired he was.It might have been from a long day of work, or maybe just the heavy feeling of being alive.

His eyes were fixed on some faraway spot, with a bag slung over his shoulder and a cigarette slowly smoking in his hand.
His presence was so intriguing to me that I wanted to take a photo of him.I asked if I could take pictures, and he said yes and seemed completely at ease with the camera.He kept looking at the same distant spot the whole time.

I think it speaks for itself how well the mood of that moment came through in the photo, don’t you?
