Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ A recent moment of freedom in a Dromana carpark, Mornington Peninsula
~
PhotoHunt #221 ~ Free
One Single Impression #124 ~ Overt
~
Just an ordinary
Wind-blown
Chilled
Winter's day
Just an ordinary
Wait
In the carpark
A flurry of feet
Flying on the bars of
The trolley bay
Up the lamp-post
Perched
Cross-legged
The shoppers glanced and
Kept walking
I gazed and
Kept the camera
Steady
One shot
One blatant
Secret
Shot
One overt, free moment
Dissolving

"One overt, free moment
Dissolving"
Moments which are free- overt are not many.
Wonderful take on the prompt.
I like how it dissolves in the mind..
hugging the stones, I meditate fervently
What it is to be a photographer--blatant AND secret.
Lovely to know that you had a camera and a truly gifted and thinking mind to give us such an overt expression of freedom.. Very well written..
love how you caught the moment...
When it's there, one MUST climb it! :) Fantastic capture...
Ohhh, how I adore "covert" photo taking and I love, love, LOVE that this turned into such a splendid poem!!
Kudos to you!
