Snappy, I love the title tired feet, I really like the photo, too.
Am in a hurry, but I did want to comment.

Nice angle on the first two shots.
Each Alone
Each ALone is DYNAMITE! The two individuals, opposite each other, with the diagonal lines in the floor connecting them and repeated in the square air duct thing in the center between them, with both upper corners with the edge of the staircases symetrically displayed. I think this is just superb framing. Now..... was this a found shot or was this staged? You can tell us the truth. We won't tell!!
I really like this - great work!!

Thanks for the kind words Pathfinder and Lynn. This was absolutely a found shot. I was in the shopping center downtown. It's a multi-level outdoor mall. I was walking on the level above this area and went over to the rail and looked down. This woman walked over and sat down to rub her feet. She then took out a cigarette. I took the shot of her alone. There was no one on the other bench. Then this guy walked up with his lunch and sat down. The thing in the center is an art work. A tiled mosaic on a tiled pedestal. You can see more of it in the first picture. The two people on opposite sides could not see each other. They were sitting there, each alone and unaware of each other. I just took the shot.

Sorry I called it an air duct - I could see it was a marble column or something, just could not decipher what it was precisely. That the two individuals could not see each other and seemed unaware of each other was clear to me. Cool picture - that will look great as a large print, I bet.
