Melbourne Candid Series #1311 Swanston St

 



Sidewalk runway, no tickets required
One strides on instinct, the other’s wired.
A tote swings like it knows the way,
While thumbs conduct a digital ballet.

Midriff confidence meets oversized ease,
Streetlight halos and passing breeze.
One reads the world, chin slightly raised,
One reads a screen, entirely dazed.

Behind them, the city queues and blurs
Errands, ambitions, accidental detours.
No dialogue heard, yet a story’s clear:
Two timelines walking—now and “just a sec, here.”

  1. Fine street photography. The two pretty young women are easy on the eyes. They seem to have a good time doing some shopping.

  7. The one on the left is plotting what she will say to that young man who keeps on ... keeping on.

  8. I like the light of the photo. That's a great portrait of the two young women while they were enjoying a walk along that vibrant sidewalk.

  9. The left girl doesn't look happy but the right girl does. Perhaps boyfriend troubles! :-D
