Foggy Day in the streets of Brussels

I took this photo during the 2010 Gay Pride in the centre of Brussels, Belgium.
There was a lot of people in the street. The heavy smoke was artificial and it
stayed only a few seconds, so I took this picture very quickly. I feel there is a
story happening in this photo, there is a connection between each person...

In the streets of Brussels

A poem by Katie Gabrielle

In the streets of Brussels,
Powdered with mist
On a day unlike any other
Amongst the shops and cafes
And the streets of stone
Out of the foggy mist
A boy rides a bicycle
A smile on his face
Even in this foggy place
Where the streets wear smiles
Across the miles
In the streets of Brussels

Taken in: Belgique / Région de Bruxelles-Capitale / Bruxelles (show map)
