There is something fascinating in the views of streets, something that holds attention. They usually have a dynamic atmosphere, it seems, the characters are about to pass, and on a deserted street there will be a car or a single pedestrian. The life of the street is full of events, and the pictures showing it suddenly place the viewer in their midst, causing them to fantasize about what might have happened before and after the captured moment. I especially like "The Stork Fountain in Amagertorv" [Expand]
