Melbourne Candid Series #1319 Swanston St

 



Sidewalk theatre, mid-step and mid-thought,
A glance thrown sideways—half challenge, half caught.
He leans into attitude, cap tipped just so,
While she carries calm like a place she could go.

Behind them, a hoodie drifts, eyes on a screen,
Unbothered, unseen, in a digital sheen.
And life keeps on rolling—pram, sale, and street
A quiet collision of strangers in heat.


Sony A7RV

FE 35mm f1.4 GM

  10. He does look a bit aggressive. She is quite a bit bigger than he is. She could handle the situation.
