hurried sense | September 14, 2008

This is the last image I am posting in this two week cultural series on Spain. If you want to see the entire series from the beginning, click here and navigate forward with the '>' button at the bottom right of the image. Alternatively, you can see the latest thumbnails of the images in my 'People' gallery if you click here.

As for this image: it was captured in Madrid, Spain on my way back to the hotel after spending some time in a park. I noticed this businessman hurrying to cross the street (he wasn't crossing at a designated crosswalk). I meant to focus on his face, but because I was using the Canon 5D coupled with the macro lens (whose focus is slow), I didn't have time to carefully capture an image of him whilst he was rapidly walking away. Consequently, the image I came away with was the one focusing on a mirror of a motorcycle parked on the street. However, I usually claim that some of the best pictures I've captured have been accidental (either through user error, coincidence, or some other factor), and I think this image is no exception.

I can't say for sure what I'll be posting in the weeks to come. I guess you'll have to come back and find out for yourself.
