study of unhappiness 

maybe he was thinking about his wife he lost 2 years ago,and this thought was giving him a shower.being alone nothing to life for :-/

possibly. i think his mind was somewhat gone, he was not aware of anything around him, at least the things I could see and he was talking to himself. i found him fascinating...

every Sunday i pay 30 € for a place on the market and you know what i don't go their for making money only ,there are so much people interesting people its a shame i don't have time to make pictures. maybe i buy myself a small digi cam :-)

i never really like to take sneaky pics, i rather the people ask me. but in this case he was completely oblivious to me and i was shooting photos of everything anyway. and i love looking at the pictures afterwards being surprised by what reveals itself without me having been conscious of photographing it...

That jacket is definately from "Death in Venice"

oh yes ! though i never read it, thomas mann wasnt my type , i should give him another try :)

Sometimes minds meander...

down long mountainous paths, ravines, dead ends...

lovely picture !!!

No this One ;-)

ah, so he went to the church to feel happier... :)
