Lying flat on the terrace floor watching
A young man in an olive field jacket walks a rain-wet rooftop terrace at dusk, candles glowing at his feet, the city's lights spreading endlessly below.
The Story Behind This Image
Lying flat on the terrace floor watching thin clouds race the moon
He walks the length of the terrace slowly, the olive field jacket damp at the shoulders, candles burning in glass holders at his feet. Below, the city does what it always does at dusk — turns on its lights one by one, pretending the day ended neatly.
The bittersweet hour
Bittersweet is the most honest hour of the day. Grateful and grieving at once. He thinks about the version of this evening he imagined years ago, and the version he actually got — and finds, to his surprise, that he is not angry at the difference. Just quieter. The wind moves through the rooftop planters. Somewhere far below, someone laughs, and it sounds like a good sound.
Deeper thoughts, bittersweet mood
He stops at the parapet and watches the clouds race thin across the moon. Tomorrow he will try again — that is the thing about him. He always tries again.
- Pose: walking away along the terrace, turning his gaze over the sleeping city
- Photography: cinematic dusk portrait, warm candlelight against overcast blue-grey sky
