Street: Honorable Mention 2024 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Was it too hot in the sun? Too crowded in the streets? Both are possible, since this picture was taken in Agra, India. And what is it he's reading? Fiction, is he studying? I’ll never know and I don’t want to. It adds to the mystique of this picture. I find myself staring at this picture from time to time, wandering who he is. What his story in life is. What his dreams are. Maybe he’s writing his own book. Or on the other side of the spectrum, drifting the streets like so many of his countrymen.
I’ll never know. I can only hope he’s happy and doing well.
