The story behind this photo:

This was in July 2016 in St. Petersburg. I was on the bus and decided to get off early. I went along the big bridge and suddenly saw that a huge black cloud was coming in my direction. It was clearly raining heavily in the distance. The wind picked up. I realized that I should seek shelter. I quickly descended the stairs and found myself under the bridge. There were about 20 people under the bridge. And then I saw this elderly couple standing against the granite wall. The man looked toward the approaching storm, and the woman clung tightly to him. I didn't think for a long time. I just automatically took a photo. When I got home, I realized that I had probably taken my best picture. I was impressed for a long time, because I did not plan to be in that place at all that day. It was definitely one of my best experiences in photography.
