I love this photo. See that guy in the dark glasses? With the longish messy hair, cool sunglasses, wearing a dark t-shirt under his cardigan sweater? He looks a little out of place. Especially since this photo was taken in 1940. Sadly, he is probably not a real time traveler, but I really like thinking that he is. There is some happy event going on that we can't see, just off camera, and he wanted to be there to witness it too. Maybe a family member getting married, or a parade, or some grand unveiling. He's too cool to worry about the butterfly effect or the great paradox or fading away like Marty McFly. He's there with his vintage camera, too cool to really blend in, thinking no one will be the wiser and he'll be back to his barista job mucho pronto. Right?*
*(Actually more info about what the photo really is can be found
here and
here. I am far from the first person to speculate about it but I might be the only one who is still romanticizing about it.)
