Stop is like a certain stage in life! Especially in this picture where an elderly man had just gone off the tram.
He stopped just as the expectation that something, than any other in the background starts to move forward, and he remains here alone in cold world. Interesting symbolic meaning! Very beautiful! Fantastic composition and light!

I think he just realized someone took his photo. I get that look once in a while when life feels crazy and I wonder what ride I just got off of.

Thank you so much for your visit and your comment Tim! I don´t think he realized that I took his photo, I took once more after this moment and he still didn´t relized.

I am sure he didn't. He just has that "deer in the headlights" look.

Thank you Tanja very much! I have no idea what is in his hands, I just noticed, that it was a paper bag. I was writing about what I imagined in this bag several minutes ago in the answer for Trippy´s comment, but I really don´t know anything about this situation.

This is a great piece of street photography Betty. Not only is the expression good but the quality of the entire piece is nice. I'm one to notice lines in photo's and it is dead on.

Really nice street shooting and print making Betty and emotional capture. So much contained here. I find the windows add much to the scene because each contain mystery people that support to he puzzlement of the gentleman shown. Its curious to me how he grasps his package (in these times of terrorism it could be suspect...holding a bomb?) like he is not certain where to go and what to do but the package keeps him grounded.

Thank you for your time and your words Richard, I really love your comments!
I don´t know what to think about the package, but I don´t think I would connect it with terrorism, he looks so lovely and innocent!

I have a sad feeling from this photo, but I tried to persuade myself that maybe nothing dramatic is here. Maybe just a sudden idea came to his head, maybe he realised that he something had forgotten... Maybe in a few minutes he will be with his friend or with his wife. I have no idea what is in the paper package, maybe salt or flour and maybe he realised that his wife wanted some milk too! It seems like a fresh newspaper in his pocket, maybe he really just forgot to buy something.

Yes...I agree not a terrorist at all...just a sad confused soul. One of so many walking about each day. But I prefer to go along with your line of thinking...that he has that look of, Oh No...I forgot the milk.

Hodně zajímavý, na mě ne zrovna moc optimisticky působící snímek. Výraz toho starého pána asi opravdu říká vše... Zvláštně s ním kontrastují ty tvrdé, neosobní linie vpravo a moc se mi líbí i odraz odcházející paní. Jakoby sám mezi tisíci...

Skvělá práce.

Děkuji za krásný komentář Jirko, "jakoby sám mezi tisíci" přesně vystihuje i mé pocity z téhle situace, která vypadá dost smutně... ale zase si říkám, že vlastně vůbec nevím, co se na tom obrázku odehrává, a třeba to není vůbec smutné, třeba si ten pán jenom na něco najednou vzpoměl a zůstal stát v zamyšlení, kdo ví?

Glen, I think that you read his expression absolutely perfectly. He really seemed not to know which way he should go at the moment when he got off the tram. He even touched his mouths a second ago, as if he realised that it wasn´t the right stop.
Thank you for your wonderful comment my friend.

That´s another great street photo. I like this old man there. Especially his facial expression.
But I like the background too. The people inside the tram and the reflection of the house and the woman.
Very well done!!!
