A Story Waiting to be Told by taffy

A Story Waiting to be Told

I saw this on a street corner as I was walking home from downtown. I'm sure there is a story to be told here, but have no idea what it might be. Somehow, I don't think it would be a happy one. It's not conventional street photography, but I thought there is a person implied here.
Thank you for your wonderful response, comments, and favs on my infrastructure shot yesterday! Much appreciated!
I hope she wasn't abruptly abducted? maybe just shed the boot to go barefoot?

love this. Often wonder when the odd item is alongside the road.

Indeed...Great capture of the aftermath of whatever took place in this spot
March 13th, 2018  
One of those things that makes you go, hmmmmm.

Fabulous capture. I have often seen single shoes on the roads and highways and wondered how they got there. This is so different, something must have happened there.

Fascinated that it is next to that uneven dip in the pavement. Maybe the person turned their ankle over and fell.......I broke my ankle doing that once! Intriguing......you want to know the story, don't you?

It looks like spontaneous combustion to me .. only the boot is left.
March 13th, 2018  
Great mystery. Well spotted photo-op.
March 13th, 2018  
Cool shot. Does evoke many thoughts
March 13th, 2018  
There's definitely a story there ... I just hope it's a happy one!

Look as though there is sad story attached to this image Taffy. However it's a great story telling image.
March 13th, 2018  
Intriguing, an untold story here for sure. I've often wondered about odd shoes that turn up in the most unusual places.
March 13th, 2018  
Brings up sad feelings. Great find and a very emotional shot.
March 13th, 2018  
Yes, not sure this would be a happy story, cool find though and excellent in mono.

I wonder what happened to the owner of this boot. It really does give the imagination something to think about
March 13th, 2018  
Very interesting. Now I am wandering what the story might be.
March 13th, 2018  
My very first thought was that the boot had been kicking the column and gave up and laid down. 😊
March 13th, 2018  
Cool picture.
March 13th, 2018  
Great shot
March 13th, 2018  
The sort of image that could inspire a crime novel.
March 13th, 2018  
B&W adds mystery to the picture
March 13th, 2018  
So many questions

Now this illustrates the difference between us. I too saw some abandoned boots yesterday, but it never occurred to me that there was a story there. It should have, they were pink children's rubber boots. Here we have the mystery of the single abandoned boot amid the decay of the urban scene. Very thought provoking photo!
March 13th, 2018  
Great provocative shot
March 13th, 2018  
well spotted and by taking the photo you have suggested the story and certainly have us all thinking ... maybe even worrying. Black and white seems good choice for this.
March 13th, 2018  
Perhaps because I read so many crime books, I instantly think of a bad story that would leave a persons boot there. Intriguing shot.
March 14th, 2018  
Hmm, evokes thoughts of a crime scene.

That's my missing boot how did it get to you over the border. Someone's playing with me for sure as I have been looking for this right boot. I thought the boot was lost somewhere in one of the closets but you found it. True I'm missing a boot it was the first thought I had but it may not be. Still very thought provoking I still haven't found my boot. FAV
March 14th, 2018  
Oh boy, what could have happend! Not much good I fear... So well spotted and captured. Fav!
March 16th, 2018  
Yes, a story here. Always wonder how people lose 1 boot.
