the connector by summerfield

the connector

@northy had previously posted a shot of this passageway that connects the eaton centre, a really big mall in toronto, and the building across the street that houses saks fifth avenue and the hudson bay department store. and if you have the patience to look for it in her album, you will then be reassured that this passageway is really gorgeous.

one week only starts tomorrow, 31st, and i hope some of you will be able to join in. the prompts are rather easy and fun. some, however, had asked what "roll credit" was. from the images i have seen in google, my interpretation of it is this: an image which could be a start or an end of a story. when you watch a movie or your favourite show or soap on tv, mind what the initial images were, or the frozen image at the end of that movie or show.

you would know that at one time you would have taken a similar photo, in fact, all our photos could be put under that category so it could be any photo really.

take for example this photo, i could interpret it this way: the lady coming towards you is to meet someone, a friend, or a boyfriend, or anyone. the lady with the red bag who is walking away could just be a passerby or maybe she's a loony and will attack the other. so there is an impending drama. it could be the start of a movie, or an episode of a tv soap. or the scene is simply establishing a story or episode. since this is a tunnel connecting department stores perhaps there is indiscernible voices in conversation, then the credits start to appear on the screen.

or it could just be a face filling in your frame showing the emotion of the person.

i'm sure that this prompt would have already been used in the get-pushed challenge so i hope some of you have some knowledge on this and i would appreciate it if you will confirm my idea; and if not, may i invite you to clarify it for us.
i too was wondering what roll credit was, makes sense how you explain it

What a fantastic pedestrian walkway. I understand and agree with your “coming” and “going” thoughts. 😊

Are terrific photo of this walkway. It gives A fascinating perspective to the people walking through it. Thanks for the help with the roll credit explanation as well.

You are a storyteller at heart. I often think about people when I'm sitting somewhere without a task. Why are they there? Who is that with them? etc. I can imagine stories at times myself.

@randystreat - my bestie and i when we were young dudettes back in the old country, would sit by the mall and concoct stories of people we see and our other buddies would just about die laughing. you can tell people's mood by looking at their faces. when we didn't want to be understood, she would speak german and i would speak french and that made the experience more fun for our group. when we do meet, we'll set aside a time to do just that.

@summerfield Sounds like fun, but I can't speak another language.

@randystreat - we'll just do hand gestures then.

Cool walkway- it's the kind of passage I would send my grandkids down in one of our story times.

@randystreat make one up then!
