Melbourne Candid Series #1261 Swanston St

 


Swanston Street symphony, midday in swing

One bloke doomscrolls like it’s an Olympic thing.

A shopper power-walks with caffeine and sass,

While a beard with a tote does philosophical laps.


“VAPES” signs hovering like modern-day shrines,

Discount posters preaching retail lifelines.

Someone sips iced coffee like it holds the truth,

While trams clang wisdom no one hears in youth.


Melbourne marches on in grayscale delight

Half late for work, half late for life.

  4. Contenta estava en veure a algú llegint però, en engrandir-la, ai que ha sortit un maleït mòbil! ;-)
    Salutacions!

  5. Retrates perfectament l’ambient de la ciutat i aquest ritme caòtic però fascinant que té Melbourne al migdia. Es llegeix amb molta força i molta imatge.
    Una abraçada.

  7. The four people we can see in your photo are so different from each other. One on a cell phone, a man and a woman with their own agendas, and a couple behind them. Your photo tells many stories.
