Melbourne Candid Series #1290 Collins St

 


Beneath the arcade’s polite old sign,
One man devours his lunch on time.
A child walks slowly, eyes downcast,
Texting her way through the present fast.

Sun and shadow divide the street
History strolls while screens compete.

FE 16mm f1.8

    She is having a fine day out with her dad, and they have gotten some tasty treats. This is a happy photo.

    It's a typical life story isn't it. Well done.

    Father and daughter walking on a sunny morning. I like that corner of Melbourne.

    I really like the light on the girl's face, projected from the mobile phone!

    She's not easy to see at first-- but the little girl is truly a treasure to find.

    She's looking where she's going but it also looks like she has either an ice block or an ice cream in her hands.
