Melbourne Candid Series #1044 Swanston St

 


On Swanston Street, a scene unfolds,
A man with ear pods, a story untold,
Nibbling banquette, with focus keen,
A modern dance, where tech meets cuisine.

Two young men stroll with ease in tow,
Ear pods snug, as the world flows,
Lost in their rhythm, with nothing to say,
Just the pulse of the city, guiding their way.

I had to turn on full moderation for comments now. I just received over 160 spams in my comments yesterday. This is really terrible.

  1. Una escena cotidiana, aunque uno de los jovenes parece mirarte con malos ojos.

  3. How can one with ear pods on pay attention to traffic? I can never eat while walking...how to properly chew?

  5. Oh no, how can that man have his meal while using the mobile phone and walking at fast pace? This photo is absolutely stunning! I'm afraid our lifestyle is changing for the worse.

  6. Fine photo of this busy street crowded with people. It is always fun to guess what the lives of these people are like. Most everyone has technology to keep them entertained.

    1. I think most of the modern living are social isolation and busy making ends meet

  7. Una calle llena de gente que camina mientras escuchan música. Es está a la orden del día hoy por hoy en cualquier ciudad. Ya nadie camina conectado a la realidad exterior. Una lastima.
