Melbourne Candid Series #1048 Collins St

 


On Collins Street where traffic swells,
A rider waits as red light dwells.
With jacket thick 'gainst wind and rain,
He leans upon his silent frame.

A satchel wide upon his back,
Stuffed full along its heavy track,
His front wheel strays beyond the line,
Encroaching where the walkers dine.

Yet on his head, a helmet worn—
A modest grace in urban scorn.
He lingers still, both still and sly,
Beneath the watchful Melbourne sky.

  1. Extraordinario control de las luces. Un blanco y negro estupendo. Las líneas de la calzada invitan a entrar en la foto y apreciar todos sus detalles.
