Lift Your Feet, Dad!

Doesn't get any 'streetier' than this. Taken from a moving car in Delhi about 10 days ago. How lucky can you be, eh? Enjoy.

Buddy from Monroe Township, NJ, United States

Very funny, great shot. A great photo has to do with being in the right place at the right time.

@Buddy: True. And sometimes you have the camera at the ready.

I agree with Buddy, you were certainly in the right place, at the right time - great capture

@Scene by Sharon Photography: Thank you. Perhaps a future theme, pix taken from a moving vehicle?

Craig from United Kingdom

That's a great shot, well spotted and quick on the shutter! Also amazing how a few lumps of plastic can ruin a classic Italian design!

@Craig: Thank you. I agree with you re design. But these 2 guys have a bit more to worry about. ;-)

Laura from Birmingham, United Kingdom

really great spur of the moment shot. Works well in B&W too.

@Laura: Thank you. Yes. I'm amazed that it turned out so well.

Tia from Desenzano del Garda, Italy

Pixim from Nice, France

I think of recognizing the father and his son. Moreover, the son pushes the Vespa to start? Beautiful scene of life of strong characters with a neat and perfect dévelopment ;)

@Pixim: Thank you, Eric. I'm not sure whether the son is pushing the scooter to start it or, it's out of juice.

Damon Schreiber from Toronto, Canada

A beautiful shot! What a face! This is really well seen.

@chakrapani: Thanks for your kind welcome to India. But alas, I'm already back home in Melbourne, Australia. My wife and I arrived in India on December 28 and departed on 24 January 09. We essentially visited Delhi, Varanasi and many of the major sights in Rajasthan - a rich photographic safari. This was our second trip to india. A year ago we travelled mainly in the south.

I'm so pleased you like my pix, so far.
