Dear Yanidel, thank you very much for your detailed answer – for taking the initiative and write a whole post about this! I thought it may be « depends » indeed and I myself have seen/done both. The picture of the man to me in this case tells only part of the stry – it surely communicates that he is tired and it is clear where the picture has been taken but the question of the inclusion of that cross completes the picture like nothing else in the details. It in fact begs other questions to my mind like why did this attract your eye? Were you in a similar state? how conscious was the choice of the inclusion of the cross? How concious was this central composition?
These are mostly rhetorical questions and I know that the answers can be speicfic but that’s not the point. My curiosity is for the sake of understanding street photography better and I simply enjoy reading your thoughts here when you present your pictures :-)
