Every night, just after the sun goes down. Ruth Medjber talks with her neighbours in Dublin, lreland, and takes a picture of them at their windows.

    These photos, in some way. show people's lives during the global pandemic (大流行病).

    "I started out taking photos of just friends and family. In this way. I could connect with them during this special time when people have to stay at home." the photographer explained. "I live alone, so I was missing the days when we were free to communicate with friends, Every evening, on my way to seeing friends, I had a sense of purpose.

    Now she' s making new friends.

    The photo project has taken off online. and she has opened it up to volunteers. But they must be the people who live within 5 kilometers of her home﹣the lrish goverment doesn't allow people to go farther out than that.

    "I pick a street each night and try to take photos of volunteers." Ruth said. "I usually take about four photos before it is completely dark, but two if I'm talking a lot﹣which I love to do."

    She said more and more neighbours are joining in her photo project and i has now got a name, Love at Home.

    "I think people like knowing that they ‘re not alone even if they have to stay at home, and they really try to pick out those who are similar to themselves in the photos," she said. "lt's also a different view (视角) of the pandemic: the more human view.Instead of showing what the pandemic has taken from us,it shows that it has given Us more chances to be with family and friends and spend time together.
