Beneath Melbourne's cityline, the evening seemed to pause in a wash of pure orange. From the Northcote side, we watched the skyline rise in silhouette against the glowing horizon, every tower reduced to a dark, elegant stroke beneath the fading sun.
Joel and I had arrived with no great plan except to wait for that brief, magical hour when daylight softens and the city begins to sparkle. In the meantime, we sat together, happily chewing away at our favourite souvlaki—the simplest kind of dinner, wrapped in paper and eaten while the sky performed its own spectacle.
The sunset deepened, turning the horizon molten, while Melbourne stood quietly before us in silhouette. For a little while, there was nowhere else to be: just two people, a favourite meal, and a city waiting patiently for the blue hour to arrive.
