On Balmoral Ave, the crowd does roam,
A bustling street, where many call home.
A man walks by, his hands held high,
With bags of purchases, passing by.
He carries all, both near and far,
The weight of modern life in a jar.
Buy this, buy that, the cycle spins,
From goods to services, it never ends.
Electricity, gadgets, and more to claim,
Each item bought, each new gain.
In Springvale’s heart, he strides along,
A symbol of the world’s endless song.

ReplyDeleteUn primer plano del hombre con las bolsas de la compra en las manos es la puerta que abre el recorrido por esa foto en la que se penetra en ella gracias a ese recorrido propuesto con un buen trabajo de composición que nos permite llegar hasta el fondo, allí donde los automóviles están aparcados. Un buen trabajo de composición y tiempo antes de apretar el disparador. El byn es marca de la casa.
