The Journey

Place taken: Toronto, Canada

The photo captures a moment at the airport in Toronto, Canada — a place where anonymous people gather together for the same overall purpose but in the end they all head to different directions of the world. In this way, various journeys are interconnected in this photograph. You can see a great aged couple waiting for their plane to arrive, as well as random passengers in the background. What you don't see is me, as I am taking the photograph during my own journey. In a higher sense, the photograph also portrays the journey of life. It just needs a comparison of the two couples to understand what I mean.
