Melbourne Candid Series #1139 Hosier Lane


 

A middle-aged man on Hosier Lane,
With cobblestones beneath his stride,
A cap pulled low, sunglasses plain,
He walks where colours dare to hide.

One hand tucked in his coat’s deep fold,
The other swinging free and slow,
Through art-stained walls, both bright and bold,
He moves where silent watchers go.

The city hums, but he walks still,
A shadow shaped by time and will.


Sony A7RV

  4. This fellow looks like he understands something about art, and is taking in the walls of this laneway. He is a good subject for your photo.

  10. Como ya es habitual tu dominio de la fotografía de calle me parece muy bueno. Utilizas los parámetros adecuados siempre y de ese modo consigues lo que te propones.
