My mother was visiting me in Washington State. We had dinner reservations at a restaurant next to Crescent Lake. I actually had my Sony A77 and Pentax K5ii in my photo bag, because I wanted to take some photos of the interior architecture.
We had just parked the car, when I looked up and this scene just popped. I had to think fast and realized that if I took the time to stop and pull out one of my DSLR's, not only would I have possibly missed the person walking by the water, my mother would have also said to me "hurry up were going to be late for our dinner reservation". Sadly and happily I had to use my iPhone for this image. Enjoy. Thanks, Chris
