Scene taken in Athens, Greece. I spotted a well dressed woman waiting for the next bus. Her beautiful white hair caught my eye. I felt both happy and sad for an inexplicable reason. I decided to wait for at least 20 minutes to see what would happen. Her bus didn’t arrive during the time I was there. I had to leave with a heavy heart. The tight frame emphasizes the woman’s lovely head along with the vehicle’s wheel in a sense of a conceptual way.

Artist's Statement: My photographic vision focuses on capturing the essence of a person, the feeling, the soul and spirit of a city, the everyday life as it evolves in urban and rural environments.
