Some photographs are like storybooks — at first, they seem simple, but as your eyes are drawn deeper and deeper into them, you start noticing little details that when put together, make up a compelling narrative.
The composition of the shot, the facial expressions of the subject, everything can contribute to the plot that the image is trying to tell.
So we at Bored Panda decided to put together a collection of such images and invite you to get lost in them. Think of it as an exercise for your imagination.

Using images to tell a story, or simply photojournalism was made possible by printing and photography innovations that came around the middle of the 19th century.
Although early illustrations had appeared in newspapers, such as an illustration of the funeral of Lord Horatio Nelson in The Times (1806), the first weekly illustrated newspaper was the Illustrated London News, first printed in 1842. It presented the illustrations with the use of engravings.
The first photograph to be used in the illustration of a newspaper story was a depiction of barricades in Paris during the June Days uprising taken on 25 June 1848; the photo was published as an engraving in L'Illustration on 1–8 July 1848.

During the Crimean War, the ILN pioneered the birth of early photojournalism by printing pictures of the war taken by Roger Fenton.
Fenton was the first official war photographer and his work included documenting the effects it had on the troops, panoramas of the landscapes where the battles took place, model representations of the action, and portraits of commanders, which laid the groundwork for modern photojournalism.
Other photographers of the war included William Simpson and Carol Szathmari.

At the time, photos were used to mainly enhance the text rather than to act as a medium of information in its own right. However, this began to change with the work of one of the pioneers of photojournalism, John Thomson, in the late 1870s.
In collaboration with the radical journalist Adolphe Smith, he began publishing a monthly magazine, Street Life in London, from 1876 to 1877. The project documented the lives of the street people of London in photographs and text and established social documentary photography as a form of photojournalism.
Instead of the images acting as a supplement to the text, he pioneered the use of printed photographs as the predominant medium for the imparting of information, successfully combining photography with the printed word.

In 1887, flash powder was invented, enabling journalists such as Jacob Riis to photograph informal subjects indoors, which led to the landmark work How the Other Half Lives—documentation of squalid living conditions in New York City slums in the 1880s.
By 1897, it became possible to reproduce halftone photographs on printing presses running at full speed.

A Short Story
The "Golden Age of Photojournalism" is often considered to have started roughly around the 1930s and lasted until the 1950s. It was made possible thanks to the development of the compact commercial 35mm Leica camera in 1925, and the first flash bulbs between 1927 and 1930, which allowed next-level flexibility in taking pictures.

This Is Why You Need To Put Your Cart Back In The Corral When You're Finished With It
They're pure arseholes! I'm very very lazy, so I just park as close as possible to the return corral, even if not I'll make sure to return the cart. It's just being civilised!
Load More Replies...Whenever we shop, we each take a random buggy from the parking lot back to the store instead of using one of the ones put away. Leaving buggies out this way says so much about the person who did it.
Same. Or I grab a few if I'm heading close to a corral.
Load More Replies...See Cart Narc’s YouTube channel for the offenders’ reactions when being called out
What kind of animal does cruel s**t like that? Oh yeah, entitled humans.
Humans are the most dangerous animals of all--the entitled ones need to be taught a lesson!
Load More Replies...Just do as in Europe: to get the cart you have to insert a coin which you get back when you put the cart in place.
I think that everyone should spend a day in a wheelchair or a day blindfolded to understand the issues that their selfishness can cause others.
I once worked for an organisation that helped disabled people who did just that! Honestly, a great idea. I've seen quite a few people justifying this kind of behaviour on BP in the past - often with the excuses that they are disabled or ill, well, so ARE a lot of us (me included) and we DON'T do this to each other!
Load More Replies...They should change to coin-carts, like in Europe. Everyone would move his!her lazy asss
Not in the US. They would give up the coin. I've seen it happen.
Load More Replies...Please do not park into the lined area next to disabled parking we need it to transfer to Our chairs
In Germany we have to put coins (1 or 2 €) in those waggons to unlock them.
It's a lot easier to return the cart to the corral than it is to muscle it up over a curb, ffs.
Stupid leaves the cart right smack in the center of a handicapped parking place. Wanna slap stupid stupid.
I've had mobility issues off and on. So on bad days, I park by a cart corral and use one from that to get into the store, and be able to leave it there when I'm done.
Imagine, it's highly unlikey that this store has this high of disability traffic.
Load More Replies...This is why you have to put a coin in it over here, need to put it back to get your money back.
Most of Europe you have to insert a coin, so everyone brings it Back.
people can be so self centred , that 10 seconds you saved could cost some one minuets
Not just minutes - if you’re blocking access for disabled people we might not be able to go in to the place at all. It’s not just inconvenient for us, it can stop us.
Load More Replies...Where are the cart narcs when you need them? Agent Sebastian wouldn't let this c**p fly
Ooooo I hate this! Not only does it make it very difficult for handicapped folks... but also, think of that poor employee having to chase down all of them carts while not even being paid a living wage. I used to love to do carts when I worked at Whole Foods.. mostly cause I'd go get stoned.. but having to wrangle all of them from areas like this in the rain & snow was a fucken nightmare! There's a cart corral every 30 feet people! Don't be a lazy prick!
As the wife of a disabled person (like the gentleman in the wheelchair) I am so disgusted by self centered jerks who cannot show even a modicum of courtesy. This could be you at some point in the future. Karma's a bit**!
In most of Europe we have to put 1 or 2 Euros coins in the cart as a deposit that we will retrieve once we put the cart back in the corral.
This happens way too much. And stay out of the disabled spaces. I don't care if you are picking up your child and will only be there a second - you have legs, and so does your kid. It just takes that second for a disabled person to be forced to park elsewhere, or not be able to park at all. If they have to traverse the parking lot in a wheelchair, they could easily be hit by someone backing out in an SUV or other vehicle that can't see them below the window. (Guess what, they cant just step up onto the curb like a person or child with 2 legs). Don't park in no parking zones, or park so the disabled cannot get into our out of their vans - whether they are side or rear access. This all happens way too often. Guess what - the rules apply to all of us.
I put it away mostly so that the cart gatherers don't have to be out in the heat/cold/rain running all over the lot trying to find and gather them. They don't get paid enough for their basic duties, I don't want to make it harder. I also don't want cars to hit them, block any parking spots, or cause an accident. An inconvenience to others eventually finds its way back to the one who caused it most of the time.
In Europe you almost always have to put a pound or euro (the two coins are the same size) into the trolley to use it. Anyone too lazy to take the trolley back to the rank after shopping loses the coin.
People who can't be bothered to put their cart back where it belongs are the pits! And I love the ones who leave their cart wandering freely in the car park!
I cant understant why the do this. In dont see this behavior in spain.
in Europe you've to put a coin in the cart to use it, and carry it back to have the Euro back... not many people let the coin in, and carts aren't all around
What really annoys me at supermarkets is when shoppers also put trolleys back in the corral making a line of them so long it juts out into the road where cars need to drive.
I get so damn tired of people driving around and around the parking lot trying to find the closest place to park. If you can walk, then walk! It will do you good. There are plenty of people like myself who'd like to be in your situation. Whenever I use an electric cart and I'm leaving, I always let a store employee know so that they can come get the cart quickly and return it to the store. The photo above just shows the lack of sensitivity (and that's putting it kindly) that some people have.
Aldi doesn't have that problem cause you pay a quarter to get a cart then get the quarter back when you return the cart. I always give my cart to someone else, leaving the quarter in the cart.
I do, each and every time. In fact, if there are stray carts near mine, they go with me too. Somebody told me once not to do that because I was taking a job away from some grocery store employee (they do have cart gathering as one of their chores, that is true.) I said, "Hon, we live in Arizona. No one should have to go anywhere extra to collect carts when it's 100+ degrees and a hot sun baking the parking lot." She walked away.
i always put mine back. I want to get my token out else I have to use pound coins.
Look how far away he had to park. I hope there's not some able-bodied jerk in the handicapped spaces.
In our country the carta are chained together and you have to put a coin in the lock to free one. You get the coin back when you return the cart to the corral.
You know what else ... put a damn return cart NEAR a handicapped. Also, my favorite, here in Wisconsin.... the amount of handicapped parking stalls that are NEVER plowed. All other stalls, plowed, clear and then handicapped full of snow. The part for wheelchairs full of snow. Ableist BS.
Yes, this so much...Seriously!!! There's plenty of those close by, don't be part of the problem folks!
Unconscious humans who cannot see beyond their own arm's length, if that.
If I was there, I would definitely tidy it all up. in Indonesia, we always tidy up, or at least put it away to a safe place so that other people can pass easily
It takes 5 minutes or less, especially if you shop with someone. Come on!
Most of these lazy sods would walk a mile to get a burger/pizza/take-away! Well done for calling them out.
So you don't wind up in a wheelchair with an infant? Yikes. Noted! Jk--I also use a wheelchair and this is SO 🦊ING FRUSTRATING!!! Laughing through my tears🤣
That's WalMart for ya. I dont get it. How damn hard is it to walk a few feet to do something decent? I know some places have quarter paid deposit type systems, but maybe a dollar would be more motivation to return your damn cart? Idk... It's a sad reality that there even needs to be a motivating source outside of common courtesy.
He probably had to park that far away because some healthy jerk was hogging the handicap parking spot.
Had I been there I would have moved them all and made sure he got in OK..and then let the store know. Would have taken just a few minutes!
I even put away an extra cart yesterday b.c the old lady looked like she needed some help lol
That it even needs to be explained. Even just considering that if you don't it's so much more work for grossly underpaid worker. Just eeewwww.
The shopping cart theory determines whether someone is a good or bad member of society
Maybe they were all on their way to go work out and couldn't spare the time. They also usually take the closer in spaces, rather than walk a little farther.
This should be at the top of the list. Arseholes, the lot of them that leave carts like this!
I agree put your carts in the corral, but this is a setup. The handicapped parking would be MUCH closer to the stores and there are curbs on both sides of the sidewalk with no evidence of a ramp anywhere near where they are or anywhere for this person to get off the sidewalk to any of the vehicles in the line.
How...? Why didn't he..? Why doesn't he..? ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

The "Golden Age of Photojournalism" ended in the 1970s when many photo magazines found that they could not compete with other media for advertising revenue to sustain their large circulations and high costs. Still, those outlets taught journalism much about the photographic essay and the power of still images.

I adopted a big old cat two years ago, it was not a planned rescue and the only place we could accommodate him is a room next to my mother's. Problem is, in her room lives her cat, who is also big and old. These two ones hate each other and we had to set up a complicated schedule so that they can live their lives separately, and go out without ever meeting each other. But they still happen to yell at each other through the closed door between the two rooms. That's kind of ridiculous.

Burning Their Russian Passports As A Form Of Protest For Russia's Invasion Of Ukraine
Love these people for this. I often joke in my comments but when I was younger I would have in all probability tarred all Russians with the same brush in the current situation. However wisdom comes with age, and it seems more obvious now with that more rounded outlook that many of them despise their own government just as much as the rest of us. Those people deserve our support too, just as we all stand with the people of Ukraine, because standing up to Putin in their own country is also incredibly brave.
