    Did you wait for someone to walk by or was it chance? Whichever, it makes the shot great!

    @ ciel - I was angry at first and quickly took another picture without the legs. Then I changed my mind...

    Yeah, I like the walker too.

    I love pictures with walking feet. This is a good one.
