Melbourne Candid Series #1251 Flinders St

 

A man in shades on Flinders Street,
Crouched mid-step, in pose discreet,
A fist beneath his sculpted chin,
As if deep thought were caged within.

Beside him walked, with mirrored eyes,
His blonde companion, cool, precise,
Her stride unbent, her silence sleek,
The sunlight glinting on her cheek.

The crowd flowed past — a restless stream,
Yet they moved through, a frozen dream,
Two figures framed in city glare,
Half in fashion, half in air.

  2. Interesting analysis. This picture reminds me of the song, “Is she really going out with him?”

  3. I particularly like the reflections and textures of the metal wall.

  4. Em sembla que ell està tossint i a ella alguna cosa l'està molestant, més que res en veure les seves celles. ;-)
    Una altra foto amb un B/N perfecte.
    Salutacions!

  5. Dos paseantes que no parecen sentirse muy cerca y que llevan sus pensamientos por caminos independientes.

  7. Looks like he is puffing his vape! Vapes are so common over here and people have their fist up like that when vaping.

  8. It looks to me like the man is covering his cough, albeit it rather poorly.

    1. There must be some sort of glitch with comment here. I found a lot of my replies missing as well

  11. I wonder if those two are together, or if he's a stranger about to speak to her and maybe flirt a little?
