1943 Bubley Dirt Road Esther Road September Side Suitcase Tree Waiting Window Windshield

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in 1943, we are transported back in time to a small town in the United States. The image captures a moment of anticipation as a young girl waits for her bus to arrive. Through the dusty window of the bus, we catch a glimpse of her standing on the side of a dirt road, surrounded by towering trees. The girl's face is filled with hope and excitement, perhaps embarking on an adventure or reuniting with loved ones. Her neatly packed suitcase beside her suggests that she is prepared for whatever lies ahead on this journey. Esther Bubley's skilled photography allows us to experience this scene from inside the bus. We see the world through its windshield, adding depth and perspective to our view. The blurred edges create an ethereal effect, emphasizing both movement and stillness simultaneously. This photograph not only captures a specific moment but also serves as a timeless representation of travel during that era. It reminds us of simpler times when buses were essential modes of transportation connecting people across vast distances. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but wonder about the stories behind each passenger aboard that bus - their dreams, fears, and aspirations intertwining amidst their shared voyage through life.
