"Time is
Too Slow for those who Wait
Too Swift for those who Fear
Too Long for those who Grieve
Too Short for those who Rejoice
But for those who Love
Time is not"

well, judging from his stride, he seems to be in a hurry to get somewhere (or perhaps nowhere?) fast! great contrast!

I wish I could save time in a bottle.
There never seems to be enough time to do the things I want to do...
Another wonderful "soul stirring" image! Thanks Sharon.

Power walking, brain thinking, huge striding, pockets filled with tense knuckles....... I think he is considering his options as he strides purposefully to the destination of his choice.
A nice observation, BlueChameleon

The man is walking with such purpose. He seems oblivious to his surroundings. Great shot here.

traitement un peu violent. On ne distingue plus vraiment l'homme de la rembarde

Something about the way he strides along reminds me of R. Crumb's 'Keep on Trucking'

Beautiful contrasts - Sharon doing her magic thing again! Has this guy got large strides, or what? Yet has hands seem to be in his pockets...
