Two figures blaze in the sun,
bare arms, swift steps,
their dresses cut sharp against the light.
On the left,
the shaded tables hold their hush—
diners folded into shadow,
whispers curling like steam from cups.
Between them
a line divides the world:
light that exposes,
dark that conceals.
And the lane,
forever narrow,
swallows both.

ReplyDeleteMelanoma risk
DeleteAn excellent capture. Plus, the light is intense and powerful, making the photographer's job even more difficult.
ReplyDeleteSo over exposed there lol
DeleteSombra y luz, en dos zonas muy bien definidas de la imagen. La luz hace destacar a las personas que ahora circulan por derecha de la acera, mientras la sombra oculta todo lo que a la izquierda.
ReplyDeleteFeliz fin de semana.
Diners in the shadow
DeleteLove that photo of the happy youngsters. The poem is amazing especially the second stanza On the left,
