Photography's advent gave birth to the camera obscura of the 15th century which led to the camera of the 19th century and freezing time into frames became the norm, almost working as a time machine. Through pictures we can now have a more vivid account of the scenarios happening in our lives and others lives and maybe even submit them to a timeline taking into consideration our own inner senses of time. In fact, according to Kant "Time is nothing but the form of the institution of ourselves and of our inner state" so to have a first hand account of freezing the time of the passerby I joined the Unsplashcommunity in Boston as we walked around the commons and the famous Acorn street photographing proper citizens as they walked the city streets.
