“While the Train Moves”

Evening subway car.
He holds the world in pause -
the city keeps moving.

Evening subway car. He holds the world in pause - the city keeps moving. Falling onto the bench of a late‑night subway car, I saw a figure that felt almost out of place, out of time. I’ve been building my collection “Life in the Metro” for years, capturing all kinds of faces, but this one was different: the face, the clothes, the whole presence - as if he had stepped out of a novel. He wasn’t posing; he was simply living inside his own thoughts. I tried, as any documentarian should, to remain invisible, not to disturb his quiet and not to let the image dissolve into the air like a wisp of smoke.
