I picked this book for one particular photo, a photo I wish I could’ve been the one holding the camera and pressing the shutter release. The photo is of an older lady holding a cigarette inside a café by the window and on the other side of the glass is a young girl and her reflection leaning, looking. Both are making eye contact with the lens, the older lady is smiling, the younger girl has a look of query. Everything is perfect in this image. This image leaves with me questions I want to ask them though I know they will never be answered and that’s alright.
