Nikon D300 Nikkor AF 50mm f/1.8D @ f/2 ISO 200 1/80th - B&W processing in Silver Efex ProLast month I began watching the original Twilight Zone series from the first episode. It is a black & white world where the ordinary always leads to the extraordinary. It is unfortunate that I am not able to continue my street photography career here in St. Petersburg as I was able to do with ease while living in Tokyo. One has to really look for shots here as there are very few people walking the streets of downtown.
What drew me to this scene first was the lighting and then my curiosity to what the woman in the booth thinks about. How often is her mind on something outside the booth? Does she still try to stare into the darkness before her searching for anything? Did she ever?
For someone passing by it appears as a small booth, but I am sure she has her own world in there. Like the ending to many Twilight Zone episodes, what really lies in her mind, or in the dark beyond, will remain a mystery.
