Actions speak louder than words?

Black and white photograph of a man sat on a plinth in front of a shrine using his phone with other people to either side giving the appearance of a queue

Sometimes we need the words to explain why the actions happened. An example:

When you look at the man in the photo above what do you see? Did he step out of the queue to focus on the message he’s composing? Did he need a rest while waiting to get into the temple?

Or…

there is no queue, just a few people who happen to be gathered together playing Pokémon Go.
