I photographed this street scene a bus stop on Castro Street. The Castro area became, along with the neighboring Haight Ashbury district, the core of San Francisco's counter-culture in the 1960s. The glass enclosed bus stop acts as a divider here – separating those waiting for a bus from the street life behind them. These two people are unaware of each other’s presence. Separated by a divider, each seems lost in their own world. It is an encounter that never took place.
