a bench for the blind and the smelly trash... an urban landscape...

each of the homes bears silent witness to the kind of lives led by many working-class and middle-class people. people work during the day, watch television in the evening and are too tired to maintain social contacts, all of these lives are lived next to one another in the same building but there seems to be minimal contact between the various households. every window has a story to tell, but a depressing one...

the dull, non-atmospherics ferry-wheel that represents boredom, it's definitely not a joyful ride, reality sucks sometime.  to be able to peep into the highest floor's window, you have to take a ride on the ferry wheel.

there are abandoned cars, real "gangsters" walking around putting on a show, it's hard to tell who are visitors and who are actors, it took you awhile to figure them out...

it's such a depressing scenes, but these scenes are many in different parts of the world.  if only the light of Christ will shine to these places, touch the people and give them the purpose of life then perhaps the world will be a little brighter.  after all there is always a light at the end of the tunnel...
