WAITING

Since 1978, Dieter Leistner has been photographing people waiting at public transport stops throughout the world. Whether in Asia or Europe, South America or the Indian Ocean, in the countryside or in town, in capitalism or socialism Leistner captures those wait ing subtly and with a professional perspective. He opens up a cosmos of instantaneous shots with their own particular aura: sometime s cheerful, sometimes melancholic, sometimes bustling, sometimes lonesome.
