On this week's photo walk, Bob discovered a simple truth: some of the best stories are hiding just behind a pane of glass. Whether it was a back alley window or a wide-open restaurant door, each frame offered its own quiet moment, waiting to be captured.
The journey began with a curious sight—a strange, hair-like object perched in a dusty window of a red-brick house. Bob stopped in his tracks. Was it a wig? A forgotten Halloween prop? Or just an odd tuft of fabric? Whatever it was, it had personality. He snapped the shot. Sometimes, mystery is more compelling than answers.
Further along, Bob was drawn to the back entrance of a modern eatery. Through the reflection-streaked glass door, he spotted two chefs busy at work. The kitchen was alive with quiet focus. A “Please Use Front Door” sign added a bit of humor—Bob, of course, was right at the back, camera in hand, as if he’d snuck in unnoticed. The moment felt stolen, but not intrusive—just a glimpse of daily life through a different angle.
Later, he passed by a sleek restaurant where the front window was wide open to the street. A woman sat alone at a table, mid-meal, while warm light and soft décor framed her like a scene from a quiet film. Bob shot from outside, blending with the street. The glass was gone, but the feeling of looking in remained.
For Bob, these weren’t just photos—they were connections. Each window or door acted like a lens into the rhythm of a city that never fully shuts itself off. These thresholds between public and private created perfect stages for candid storytelling.
So next time you’re out with a camera, take Bob’s advice: look through the glass. You never know what small, human drama might be playing out on the other side.
