One of those rare times when there were no container ships unloading here so I could get just the walkers.
The way I have heard it is, Lucas was being driven across the Bay Bridge when he saw the cranes at the Port of Oakland and started sketching them. They became the walkers. I don't know if it's true, but it is a fine tale.
Oakland, California.
Friends gathered around a park table after walking around the lake together.

THEME: SHOE SOLE
SUBJECT: WALKERS
Happy Friday, Everyone!
I put my camera on the tripod and took shots as people went by every so often. This resulting image is 22 different shots layered and masked,kind of a poor man's Where's Waldo. Luckily it was a gray day without shadows.
A pair of walkers holding on to the bridge railings to avoid slipping on this icy morning.
I got a lot of very nice photos of the incredible dawn this morning, I will upload some more later.
We are in lockdown, and have to remain within 5km from home.... hence returning to this location :)
Dor Walker, here's my version... adjusted various tones & hues plus the little puddle. Tried to add some punch to it but don't know if I succeded.
Thanks for the challenge!
Another in the series. The rule of the game is to snap the shutter at just the moment when the white walker appears.

Originally called simply “The Park”, this beautiful little valley, Walker’s Basin, was named for Joseph Reddford Walker who was a pathfinder and scout for General Fremont. Walker came through this area in 1834 when he came down the San Joaquin Valley from Monterey and led his party out of the valley and over the pass which was also named for him…Walker Pass. The first settlers came to Walker’s Basin long before roads came. The trail leading up Walker’s Basin Creek through the Basin and over the mountain pass was the route of the Union Soldiers during the Civil War as they journeyed between Fort Tejon and Fort Independence (near Bishop in northern California). This northeast looking view was taken from the mountain to the south along the Caliente Bodfish Road.
Walker Basin is a triangular-shaped alluvial basin bounded on the west by the Breckenridge fault (not visible in this photo) and on the east by Greenhorn Mountains bedrock escarpment (which is visible in photo). Late Quaternary alluvial and fluvial deposits comprise the floor of Walker Basin and abut the steep, east-facing bedrock escarpment along the Breckenridge fault. The Breckenridge fault dies out southward at Rankin Ranch.
We are at the Aiguille du Midi (3842 m -12805 ft). In front of us, we have the start of the Vallée Blanche, a famous off-piste ski descent of almost 20 km from the summit of the Aiguille du Midi to Chamonix, CF www.vallee-blanche.fr/ (to see this description in English, click on the British flag in the top left corner of the screen, then on the choice "Vallée Blanche" in the menu on the left).
The large rocky peak in the center of the photo is the Pointe Walker (4208 m - 13806 ft) which is part of the Grandes Jorasses!
