Juxtaposition: A Photo Essay

jux·ta·po·si·tion
noun
  • the fact of two things being seen or placed close together with contrasting effect.”the juxtaposition of these two images”

This week’s photo challenge is one of my absolute favorites: Juxtaposition. As a traveler, we often see juxtaposition wherever we look. Contrasting and even sometimes confusing images appear that make us open our minds and think. In fact, juxtaposition is a great way of teaching us about the world around us and how other cultures are similar and different than our own.

Following is a compilation of some of my most favorite intriguing images I’ve captured that have lead me to question and ponder on the meaning.
