Smokers huddled outside committing a societal sin together brings people close together on a lot of levels. Renegades are often closely bonded. This twosome seems to be in a race to light the man's cigarette first. He's striking a match and she's coming in with a smile and a flick of her lighter. I love this moment I came across outside Tatt Datt, a catchy sounding tattoo store in Melbourne, a city I pine for every time I dig into my photo archives.
A small detail you can't quite see -- the man is wearing an AC/DC tee shirt, a group that's a BIG deal in Australia. I'm not an expert on Australian music, but I think AC/DC and Olivia Newton-John are the only musicians to cross the oceans to climb the pop charts.
