Afternoon in the park



A sunny late summer day attracts all kinds of visitors in the park.

Why is the man napping on a bench? Is he just enjoying the day, or is he tired, maybe drunk or even homeless? Seeking refuge from everyday madness? Does the bicycle leaning against the tree belong to him?

People refreshing themselves at the fountain look like they are going on a trek or have just returned from one. Travellers visiting the city or just passing through? Locals or foreigners?

Why did I take this photo in the first place? Why am I writing this nonsense?

I wish I knew...
