First, I'm going to be a bit of a downer: I was pretty disappointed in a lot of these photo stories. Some were so banal.
But I did really enjoy this one: http://www.flickr.com/groups/visualstory/discuss/72157628757827399/
What I liked about it was how it wasn't simple. The story require some decifering, and I'm not even really sure that I understand the "real" story. I especially like the last frame. The man walking away is almost haunting. I want to know what he's thinking and what he's going to do next.
I guess what I've gained from this simple exercise is that to me, a story needs an element of ambiguity. I like stories that raise as many questions as answers.
