“A crowd is not company, and faces are but a gallery of pictures, and talk is but a tinkling cymbal, where there is no love.” – Francis Bacon
Our challenge this week is to feature faces, in a crowd or standing alone. I decided on a few random pictures showing various people’s faces in a crowd. Most are strangers although the last few pictures are the faces of long-time friends.
The first is a fascinating exhibit showing numerous faces of Chicago citizens at Crown Fountain in Millennium Park. A different person’s face is projected on LED screens at regular intervals and each fountain has an outlet in the screen there by creating cooling pools of water for viewers to enjoy!
The header shot and picture below was taken several years ago at popular restaurants in Aruba.
Faces of strangers patiently waiting for their flight in an open air lounge at JFK Airport in New York.
The many faces during a weekend wedding party in New England. The chef is preparing steamed lobsters for serving along with other delicious regional food at a New England Low Country Boil. And below the band members are taking a much needed break at the wedding reception.
These last pictures were taken much closer to home on Kiawah. First is a very popular antique car show which draws large crowds every year.
These are the faces of long time friends during our photography club photo shoot on the Island.
Last but not least, this picture shows the faces of friends who are dressed for their role of impersonating popular TV characters in a who-done-it murder mystery skit.
