Moving With A Purpose

I was in Cambridge today ticking off some of those errands that have been languishing at the bottom of my to-do list for months, like getting a new battery in my watch and a new library card. I caught sight of the chap painting the bottom of the wall down the little alley and was zooming in for a picture when this lady strode along the pavement. I think she was running late. She was steaming along with a purposeful stride and the steely look of a woman with a list of a hundred things to do spinning round in her head. I hope she doesn't mind me snapping her photo as she passed.
haha... she's certainly on the march somewhere...

Nicely caught street shot.

She looks like someone I know but I think she may be a younger version! Interesting down the alley - is it Bridge Street??

Love this! Great mix of colors with her purple legs. Really like the way she is striding along and your other subject seems to be moving so slowly.

This is just great! If you hadn't mentioned the painter I'd have thought you were deliberately shooting her!

What a wonderful picture! I love everything about it - the color, the composition, the lighting - everything! It is really good!

I love the purpose in her pace. I wouldn't have even noticed the guy in the alley

Very intent look. I wish you had posted this earlier as I have three watches resting in my sox draw waiting for new batteries and I am just now back from town...oh well.
