Melbourne Candid Series #1359 Swanston St

 



Sunlight spilled across Swanston Street,
Where tattoos, tourists, and tramlines meet.
One man crossed with iced coffee care,
Like philosophy lived in humid air.

Behind him marched the midday crowd,
Silent, weary, sunburnt, proud.
The city kept humming its concrete tune 
Half jazz concerto, half hot afternoon.

  6. You caught the action going in two directions on this street. I can feel the heat from the sun in your photo.

  8. I wonder if the stout, glaring man is a brother or father... Mom isn't too pleased with things either. SO many stories in the city.
