Journeys... London, ON October 2024 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
I know what you’re thinking: again? Aren’t there other things to shoot?
Probably. But here’s the thing:
The dog needs to be walked. All. The. Time.
We live in a city that believes sidewalks aren’t really necessary on side streets. Car culture and all that. So after the sun goes down, the puppy and I stick to the large-ish feeder roads that have sidewalks.
As luck would have it, the bus passes by every 20 or so minutes. Like the dog walk, it happens All. The. Time.
And as it glides past, I often find myself wondering about who’s on-board and what their stories might be.
City life can be so disconnecting. So perhaps it’s meant to be that random photos of busses lighting up darkened streets can be tools of connection.
Or so I like to tell myself as I yet again watch strangers disappear into the dark night.
