Spitting distance

I was strolling along to the bank, enjoying the lovely sunshine, when this chap in front of me produced a great volley of spit and propelled it right across the pavement by my feet. A habit I find absolutely disgusting. I made my displeasure known but he just laughed and walked off.

It then got me wondering whether the shadows that we cast are a reflection of our inner self? If so then this guy looks like he might be some sort of cloven hoofed creature - about right!!

Unfortunately I didn't manage to capture my shadow in this shot..... wings and a halo, of course.......
