fleeting shadows at schiphol - a photo on Flickriver

            in the midst of schiphol airport’s constant motion, a momentary stillness is captured in this scene. an empty chair sits alone, casting its shadow on the patterned wood of the café communal. next to it, the fleeting shadow of a hurried passenger who has no time to sit. this black and white photograph, taken in amsterdam’s bustling airport, beautifully contrasts the quiet anticipation of the empty chair with the ephemeral presence of a traveler in haste. the interplay of light and shadow adds depth to the image, highlighting the transient nature of travel and the brief moments of calm in busy public spaces.
