| After the plows have gone Laval, QC February 2024 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
I’m nowhere near conventional, and my social media feeds suggest the wisdom thing is iffy, too. But when you’re far from home and find yourself in need of a photographic moment of shelter, you take what you’ve been given.
And so I ended up in a stairwell overlooking the freshly plowed lot. The snow squalls that dogged us all the way in had moved on, leaving a classic Montreal winter scene in their wake.
I could practically feel the frigid temperatures through the dirt-streaked windows, and looked for some way to remember what it felt like to be in the moment.
Not exactly the loveliest of places, but we didn’t travel all this way for a happy reason, and the darkness of the day seemed to dovetail nicely with the unconventionally desolate scene playing out below.
Every photo has a backstory. Or at least it should. And even if the story is tinged with sadness, it still deserves to be told in some way.
This, then, is my way.
