Now is the peak of autumn, and we have already managed to hate her with all our hearts, because it is cold, sleepy and rainy. But thanks to the work of Danny Santos, an artist who photographs strangers on the rainy streets of his city, the rain will no longer be so annoying, reminding us of summer money, when in five minutes of such happiness we were ready for a lot.
This Singaporean photographer should not be confused with Antonio Santos, a Portuguese painter known for his glorious illustrations of strange people. Santos is a common surname among talented people in Latin America and Asia. This one, for example, was born and lives in Singapore, where he has been filming strangers since 2008, since he moved here from the Philippines. This mostly takes place on Orchard Road, Singapore's main street in terms of entertainment and retail.
For 2 years, Danny Santos has accumulated enough pictures to understand the beauty of a single street, to realize that every person walking along it is a person with his thoughts, emotions, his past and his future. “Well, anyway, to photograph strangers fun,”Danny says. “I love it because there is no preparation, everything happens spontaneously. This is a very serious challenge.”
He posts all his new works on his website. Of course, their list is not limited to shooting in the rain - he has at least 5 different series of photos of strangers, each of which deserves attention.

What gods turned out to be "strangers" in their pantheons: Freya-Slav, antique Kolyada and others
We recognize each ancient culture, including by the pantheon of gods they worshiped - and we do not always think that these gods may be “non-native”. In fact, the borrowing of gods, or other people's myths for their gods, or other people's heroes went on constantly as the peoples met, communicated, traded and fought. So many of the gods in whom we are "confident", as in the Greek, Scandinavian or Slavic, are in fact aliens
