Kosong is an Indonesian word for empty, which happens to be this month's theme at CDPB (City Daily Photo Blog).
Photographically, I think it is impossible to visualize emptiness, for even in an empty space, there must be something, a few things, visible or invisible. In a photograph, one of those things is the frame.
So, visualizing emptiness is about interpretations. And this is mine. An empty bench in an office waiting room. Is it a good sign (that every visitor has been served timely that one one has to wait)? Or a bad one (that nobody wants to deal with that office)?
Happy Theme Day, everyone!

Visually, such a pleasing photograph. I laughed at your two possible interpretations. Good choice.
ReplyDeleteYes, it IS an evocative picture.
ReplyDeleteEki, I love the way you (and only you) always combine in your posts things of speculation and of feelings with interesting facts (the kind that we non-teachers would never think of).
And thanks for your stimulating comments on the execration.
Beautiful choice, Eki.
ReplyDeleteYes, there must be something and that must make some image of emptiness. Well, you have just done it!
ReplyDeleteHahaha.. Same with Jilly, I laughed with your guess.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. No people. Empty seats. Lots of space.
ReplyDeleteI really like the gray tones.
ReplyDeleteCiao Eki!
