I was walking home and I saw these people sitting on the bench. I felt terribly upset watching on as this old women sat on the other end of the bench from the couple, alone and nearly falling off. I felt her loneliness and the tention that existed in the space between them. This photograph basically points out that sometimes we can be the most alone in this world when we are surrounded by others...
But as others have pointed out theres a whole list of other meanings it could have...
this picture has sooo much meaning in it, you cuold look at together verse alone,youth verses old age,love verses um no love......the list goes on. incredible picture!
Yeh I managed to change it to the new one aswell but im gonna take second addition off. Its just I think u added it as a fav so I was gonna let you know so u could make the first edition ur fav so that when i take the second off you still got it . I think u did anyway lol. Thanks for looking again anyway, really appreciate it!

Don't be afraid of death, be afraid of an unlived life.
is this the new version you mentioned? if it is, it looks great;if it isnt,it still looks awesome. a though just came into my mind as i was looking at this, and this isnt judgemental or a criticism, but an encouragement:i struggle with this sometimes too, but when you see something like this, a person being a ignored, a homeless man or woman, of course if it had meaning photograph it, but also afterwards or beforehand, go up to that person and get to know them, and learn their story.telling others about how they could do something is great, but doing it is even better. you know what im saying? anyways, again, this is a great shot.

Have you considered the point that maybe the young couple were offering the space for the old woman to sit on, however, she refuses it and sits as far away as she can? It seems this way as there is a large gap in between the two people, and I think the young couple were there first (People dont sit half on a bench when they are there first!) and then the old woman, who comes along a while later, doesnt make full use of the space left. Maybe this is a result of a prejudice towards younger people?
Aww..it's so sad..you should have gone up to her and hugged her. No, actually, maybe not She might have beat you over the head! Really amazing photo though.
