Melbourne Candid Series #1283 Swanston St

 


Under a sign that promises everything clicks,
She scrolls through silence and sips her fix.
Cap low, eyes high,
Watching the world buffering by.

Straw in cup, thoughts on mute
City life: loud, caffeinated, and astute.


Sony A7RV

    I don't know if she's walking in the right direction or standing still, thinking she's taken the wrong path.

    Looks very busy. In your face-photo. Nice one.

    She seems to be looking at her friend's phone to see what she is doing. Whatever it is, it must be interesting. The street is full of people enjoying a day of shopping and buying refreshments.

    Is she holding a milkshake? I wonder what flavour she has.

    That's really a great portrait of the girl sipping her drink in a multicultural corner of Melburne.

    She looks very solemn for someone so young.

    Paseantes que parecen ir cada cual a sus asuntos personales, pero eso sí, muy juntos unos con otros.

    She looks grumpy. I wonder why?

    Lost in her thoughts and a bit detached from her surroundings. Thank you for linking up!
