I feel alive.
And I want to thank everyone here on Flickr for a hundred-thousand views. It reminds me how much I owe to this site and the people on it. I still can't believe how much I've changed in the two years since I've joined.
somehow (technology is our friend) i erased the words that went along with this wonderful moment. this is campo san samuele and these friends were excited to be joined by the young woman (also a friend). the moment lasted only a few seconds, less than a minute in total, and the joy was evident. life in the street in venezia. :)

What a strange day
For once not lost in a bad way
Let’s go
To a place I know...

☀☀ This took me back to my childhood days....We fit all in one when we had no car :-)
This was the way to go around town.

Gut behütet von ihren Eltern und nach langer Wartezeit ganz kurz zu bewundern:)
Well protected by their parents, and after a long wait briefly to admire :)
Usually, I don't write captions for photos - I believe a picture should tell its own story. But this one... I feel a connection to it, so I'll share.
In Seoul, near the Dongdaemun Design Plaza, there's a public piano. As a music lover, I can never walk past when someone's playing. And if they play well, I can get hang out there for ages.
That day, I sat down with a small crowd to listen to an elderly man. He played virtuosically – classical pieces. You could tell instantly: a professional.
Behind us, standing apart from the group, was a young man. Eyes closed. Just standing there. Rhythmically tapping a book in his hand. I don't know what was in his mind, but he was very focused.
Meanwhile, the pianist paused, then launched into something familiar. It was Let It Be by the Beatles.
I turned my head... and saw him. The young man. Eyes still closed, but now a blissful smile spread across his face. And in that same moment – tears streamed down his cheeks while a quiet laugh shook his shoulders. So raw. So alone. Away from everyone.
It was clear the emotions were simply overwhelming him. I don't know – maybe the song meant something personal? Maybe he had some sudden insight? But in that outpouring, he was beautiful and utterly exposed.
This is what this photo is about. About sincere emotions from music, from life.
The thing is, I adore that song myself, and The Beatles. And I react the same way – deeply, emotionally – when I hear or see something that strikes a chord in my heart.
Since I was filming the pianist on my phone, I had to fumble quickly to switch to the camera, desperate to capture that fleeting moment of a stranger's raw vulnerability on the street. And yes, the peak intensity had passed; the wave of emotion had subsided.
But the hint of that contented smile remained.
And he kept standing there, eyes closed, smiling softly until the final chord faded.
Snow in December is not unexpected here in Colorado, but a temperature drop from 42 degrees Fahrenheit to 5 degrees in 2 hours is record-breaking! Then the temperatures dropped even further through the night. I used "storybook" effects to my snowy images to add to the feeling of wonder!
