Melbourne Candid Series #1166 Exhibition St

 


Off Exhibition, the city’s hum,
Where lights command and footsteps drum.
A man in shades, like silver screen,
Stands with his boy, a tender scene.

They wait for green, the crossing’s call,
The child’s small hand enclosed in all.
Beside them stands, with comic air,
A hat askew, a traveller there.

He tugs his strap, adjusts his load,
A wanderer upon the road.
Two moments caught, yet worlds apart—
The star, the fool, both play their part.

  1. Holding Daddy's hand to cross the street, always wise.

  2. The contrast between the father-and-child tenderness and the whimsical traveler adds depth, while your lens choice and camera detail hint at the precision behind the artistry.

    Keep the good work, mate

  5. Parece que el sol es muy fuerte y lo mejor es llevar alguna gorra que cubra la cabeza.
    Muy buena escena callejera.
