The Waiting Room by Peter Elliston

October 2025 - The Waiting Room

About the Image(s)

This was a chance shot taken on my iPhone 11. I was actually at a local concert in a church hall and during the tea break we gathered in another room where chairs were set out. I noticed this child engrossed in reading and a small bear on the next chair and an older lady sitting next to them - they or may not have been related. But it somehow appealed to me as a kind of waiting room situation and I quickly took the shot and later processed in Photoshop. It seemed to work OK in colour, but a friend suggested that mono might also work well as it might draw the attention to the three main characters more, so this is it. I suppose the story is what you take it.

I love the image with the teddy bear between a child relaxed and engrossed in her reading and a woman lost in thought.   Posted: 10/05/2025 22:13:09
