Strangers in the Subway

I took this picture and made a story of how i thought this person was thinking, feeling, and some back ground info just by looking at them. This picture is one from a series of pictures by Bill Sullivans Turnstile Photography.






I chose the picture of the guy in the middle with a briefcase.




Growing up, Sabastian, had very few friends and no one seemed to like him. They all thought of him as kind of creepy looking and very intimidating. In preschool he would play in the sandbox alone. Middle school, he would eat lunch alone. High
school, he never had a project partner. Many people could not live with being teased every day and having no one to talk to, but Sebastian was used to it and began to like being alone. Sebastian always knew he wanted to be a lawyer when he grew up. He went to college to get his degree and soon set out into the world to his new career. He Hoped to make a difference in the world and pursue his dream. Now Sebastian sits in a small cubicle, drinking McDonalds coffee, punching numbers and letters into a very slow,old computer, wondering what went wrong in his career and why some guy took a picture of him at the subway that morning.
