parallel lives - a photo on Flickriver

parallel lives

            captured in palmanova, this image vividly illustrates the silent stories of two couples seated by the beach, their contrasting body language revealing the dynamics of their relationships. on the right, a couple sits closely with their legs angled towards each other, symbolizing a connection that has endured over time. their bodies lean slightly inward, indicating mutual interest and affection. in contrast, the couple on the left displays a different story; they sit apart with their bodies and legs turned away from each other, suggesting lives that have grown separate. each person seems lost in their own world, embodying a sense of isolation despite their physical proximity. the serene backdrop of sunbathers and gentle waves adds a layer of irony, as the beach's tranquility contrasts with the subtle emotional distance on the bench, showcasing how love can both thrive and wane over the years.
