On Lonsdale Street he pauses, black-clad and bowed,
A silvered arch of hat against the day;
Bone-stitched trousers whisper as he goes,
Steel wheels mark time where traffic has its say.
Between the rush, he stands—old ritual kept—
A lone, dark note the city has not swept.

Great photo of the man and his unusual outfit. It seems he was surrounded by white cars. Also like the photo's contrast.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised to see a Mexican Vaccaro on the streets of Melbourne.
ReplyDeleteReady for Day of the Dead celebrations?
ReplyDeleteInteresante personaje con esa vestimenta que semeja un traje de torero.
ReplyDeleteExcellent street photo. This Mexican gentleman looks a bit more modern than the warriors you've been photographing lately.
ReplyDeleteAlguien vestido de una forma muy exótica.
ReplyDeleteAbrazo
At first I thought he was pushing a lawnmower! He looks kinda sad this guy.
ReplyDeleteAn amazing find!
ReplyDeleteDeu estar pensant: Què mires, si tothom va vestit com vol?
ReplyDeleteSalutacions!
Beautiful
ReplyDeleteLooks like a typical day of the dead outfit. Very nice I love it. Thank you for sharing with FFO and have a very nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteWe all love our heritages, no matter where we land in the world. Not your typical Melbourne fashion, Roentare!
ReplyDeletegreat shot
ReplyDeleteA man of tradition.
ReplyDeleteGoing to bullfighting, corrida?
ReplyDeleteHe certainly seems out of place on that street wearing his traditional Mexican garb.
ReplyDeleteThis is fun and a delight to see!
ReplyDeleteThat's something you don't see every day
