Lockdown on Bourke

Posted by
: Helen : (is currently photographing in Melbourne, Australia) on 30 August 2021 in Lifestyle & Culture.

Photo taken in Melbourne centre city in April 2020.
We thought that the COVID lockdown would be over in that year.
Bourke Street at the end of August 2021, looks just the same.
Hopefully in 2022, may look different.

Canon EOS 6D Mark II 1/200 second F/8.0 ISO 100 38 mm

A very impressive atmosphere of this empty street because of the Covid. Excellent rendering of the wet pavement and reflections. Hope this is the last time we see that !

The lack of people, the wet and the semi-symmetry makes for an interesting image.

Elaine Hancock from Olney, United States

A great view looking down the street. It is just so strange having nobody there. The wet pavement makes everything shine.

@Elaine Hancock: The only people we see are the cleaners in the street, sterilising the seats, doors and poles

Eerily quiet and empty. Great composition and lgiht. I also hope next year will bring something better for all of us and personally I hope to be able to travel again outside of Western Australia.
