Urban Stories – Miami

busking-Edit

The little unknown stories around us.

Have you ever wondered what goes on inside that house/apartment on the corner? Where you see silhouettes of life behind a lace curtain? Or what kind of tales a building, an object, a place, would whisper to you if it became alive and made you its confidant? What kind of stories would be told and secrets unveiled? What if you could learn a lifetime of lessons from just stopping for a moment to watch a group of elderly men play domino in a park? What if a traffic sign is literally trying to tell you something in a crossroad in your life?

These are some of these stories captured candidly by my smartphone camera for over a year, around Miami.

What are the Urban Stories in your city? Try this for a day: Walk around your neighborhood. Let your curiosity guide you to a world of wonder.–FC
