Photos Where We Don't Need Context to Understand
Many images don't require context to understand what's happening; you simply need to pay attention to what you see. Often, without even a title explaining what a photo is about, it can be confusing, but other times the viewer can freely interpret what they see, from selfies to posts that go viral on social media.
There are times when people capture a moment that can be amazing or striking, and it's hard to resist taking a photo in nature, on the beach, or in the snow.
Images without context can be interesting, funny, and unusual, but the best part is that they don't need an explanation to be understood.
