#867 - Monochrome Shots for Saturday.

Lovely weekend evening dearest Hiveans. It's my second day of rest and barely didn't had much to do except wash the week long accumulated laundry. I started washing it around eleven and finished it all by three in the afternoon, that's when the rain started pouring down also haha and my wife had to rush in hanging the clothes to dry. I did hang some of it outside the house also but under some shed to avoid getting soak in rain water. Then late in the afternoon we went to the market or perhaps talipapa which is a small market to buy a tray of eggs and then cucumbers also which we ate every after meal go help with digestion. Then along the road, my wife bought fifty pesos worth of deep fried peanuts which is cured with salt and msg, delicious 😋 haha.

Anyways moving on now to our daily shots which is in monochrome for tonight, we got here a young man clad in an ID lace and navigates through the crowd gathered at the overpass. The concrete structure with its protective roof, shelters the throngs of people from the rain that pours down outside. He grips an umbrella tightly, its waterproof canopy shield him from the downpour when he is out of the overpass.

Then we fot here a matured man with his face etched with the lines of experience, he walks in front of a huge jeepney, with his reading glasses perched on the bridge of his nose. His eyes definitely a little weaker with age, flicker between the words on the page and the screen of his phone while also making sure his steps are careful.

Then we have here a mother who shares an umbrella with her little boy with their heads bent against the rain. The boy with his tiny hand gripping his mother's firmly. As they walk, the mother glances aroun with her eyes noting the other pedestrians braving the downpour. One woman in front of them walks briskly as she didn't have an umbrella with her.

Then lastly we have here a young couple who huddled together beneath the shelter of an umbrella. The rain pours down around them, a steady drumbeat that punctuates the sound of their laughter and conversation. And yet despite the downpour the road remains busy with a stream of people braving the elements to get to their destinations.
