An alley off of Little Bourke,
Where silence wraps the city's murk,
The night breathes low in amber hue,
Street lamps cast their solemn view.
Their golden halos gently fall
On cobblestones, worn smooth and small,
Each stone a story, soft and old,
Of boots and dreams, of hands grown cold.
Shadows stretch along the lane,
In quiet rhythm, soft as rain.
The city's hum is far, then near—
A breath, a step, a whisper clear.
Here secrets cling to brick and wall,
Where time forgets to move at all.
In Melbourne's heart, in hush and gleam,
The alley hums a half-lost dream.

This alley gives a sense of mystery and the possibility of danger. Beautiful perspective in your photo.
ReplyDeleteDanger for sure
DeleteEs un lugar tranquilo y solitario. Da un poco de miedo transitar por esa calle.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Wait to be robbed by gangs
DeleteI like light and shadow effect on cobblestones at night. This effect makes that alley mysterious in an unpleasant way.
ReplyDeleteLife is like that around there
DeleteLooks a bit dark, not sure I'd venture down there
ReplyDeleteThen one gets news of people being raped or murdered from walking through this sort of lane at 1 am
DeleteGood work in photo and verse.
ReplyDeleteA series that I get plenty of vertical banding on the photo
DeleteUn gran cambio de lugar y de tipo de fotografía. Me gusta mucho. Un blanco y negro precioso y una calle solitaria y con un algo de misterio.
ReplyDeleteA type of photography I find on instagram
DeleteLooks like a dark alley in Victorian London where Jack the Ripper lurked.
ReplyDeleteI got you lol
DeleteVery good
ReplyDeleteI love this dark alley.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't want to walk alone there at night....
ReplyDeleteThe silence of the night.
ReplyDeleteA great photo but not a place I would want to walk down at night.

ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, Roentare! I'd think twice before walking down that alley by myself!
