Hi Lluis,
Oh so close! :-( Now given that nobody else stepped into the frame before 
you shot, you should have let her take a couple more steps and she would 
have had a complete body shadow behind her and the picture would've been 
perfect. instead of a cut off body! :-(

The lady who is a head of her by a half dozen steps has the full body shadow 
and if you had waited two or three seconds before pressing the shutter 
release it would have?
Well imagine her complete body shadow coming back to you? Beauty street 
photo.

Close, a nice seeing of the moment, unfortunately you don't win the gold 
medal! :-(
Some times it's but a second or two.. then click! Of course providing 
another doesn't walk into the scene?

However? The important part?..........."you saw the effect and the moment in 
the first place!" Many wouldn't see it or miss it completely! I bet you wont 
forget this when you see a similar situation and we'll see a full body 
shadow next posting! :-)
cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
