#984 - Monochrome Street Scenes for Tuesday.

Wonderful Tuesday dearest Hiveans! They say that you are the author of your story, Hiveans and every day is a blank page waiting for you to fill it. So don't let anyone else hold the pen so take control and write your narrative. Remember, there are no mistakes. So embrace the unexpected and keep writing your unique story. The world is eager to read your story.

Moving on now to our daily shots. Here's a scene at Burnham Park's bicycle dedicated street. Kids zoom by on various bikes mostly with those with sidecars attached. Meanwhile the adults ride mountain bike with ease. The mix of ages and bike types creates a lively atmosphere which is a proof of the joy and freedom that cycling brings.

Next is a busy stretch of Session Road revealing a mix of life as people of all ages walked in and out of each other's paths. Teenagers giggle and chat. Middle aged people, one buying a donut and elderly couples stroll taking in the scenery. The sidewalk is a river of people which is a vibrant mix of purposes and personalities.

Here is a man walking with a serious expression while his eyes fixed straight ahead. In each hand, he carries an eco-friendly bag with presumably heavy contents judging by his facial expressions. His wife follows closely behind but mostly covered by his large figure. Not far behind them is a security officer patrolling for peace and order.

Lastly is a couple walking hand in hand down the middle of a pedestrian lane as vehicles halt to let them pass. The woman is heavily pregnant with her belly round and distinctive. Her caring partner walks beside her holding an umbrella over them both, shielding her from the heat elements with a sweet gesture. Behind them is this pickup truck with its front bumper almost touching their backs. The driver seem uncaring of the personal space he invades or could even cause an accident.
