Stranger Danger

Ever walked along a quiet alleyway in a strange place and heard footsteps approaching behind you? It makes my heart beat faster just thinking about it.
I was a little tense heading off the beaten track without my bodyguard but in fact this chap was just disapproving of a trio of teenaged girls changing their clothes behind an inadequate tree. It's interesting that @jannaellen said she would have been worried about Adam leaning against the wall if she hadn't known him and yet he'd just carried an old lady's suitcase down a long flight of stairs for her. Appearances can be deceiving and I love that photos that should record reality can actually tell a lie.

Great street scene; love the colorful graffiti.

You've captured the moment - great story!

...excellent glance-back shot, makes for a powerful image with a story to tell.. but which one.

[KeithD]

Another superb photo. I think the photos record reality, it's just how we interpret them that creates the lie!

[Louie]

Great photo.

[Peggy Sirk]

Marvelous! If I didn't know the story I'd say you were making this dude a little nervous. That's my interpretation of the reality of this shot. :)

[Janet Morris]

Fantastic story and perfect shot!

[Barbara Paquette]

Haha - bet he was wary of a stranger stalking him with a camera!!!! Monty would have been a good cover.

[Pat Knowles]

He does look rather alarming & suspicious but as you say you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover !!! Great story to this picture & I would have been nervous too !

[Shanne]

great commentary and street graffiti - clever theme shot

[genevieve]

fab street shot. He does look very suspicious or worried about something behind him.

judith i love the line in your comment that reads ........ 'I love that photos that should record reality can actually tell a lie'...........that is such a astute observation....my first glance of this image is that the man in the frame is fleeing from someone or something...

Hey you got a bike in your shot too :) ...super shot

[Janna E.]

A great backalley shot! He certainly looks scared of you - lol ;).

[Vanesther]

Great shot - I love the way you can read this so many different ways.
