Weary Feet

During the vigil for the late Pope pilgrims of all shapes and sizes descended on St. Peter's Square.
These old feet belonged to a knarled woman who spent her time kneeling and cutting out cardboard hearts to pass to passers by.

    OK you contras....no problem from my part but you have to understand this extremely strong image of a pilgrim's feet is one of the details from a whole photojournalism coverage of the Pope's death.
    There was never any need that this image show more (or less) to justify its existence,.
    Anyway I didn't ask for it to be voted on a dnreally don't care very much if a shot gets a lot of votes or even clicks...
    I make 'em and I show them....
    As simple as that.

    i think it can stand alone without explanation. you repeat in words what the image already says. the words are there, i'll get over it... big pro!

    I would like more focus (composition wise) on the feet and hearts here, the big black top side is not interesting. I don't find the story doing any good to the photo, because these feet don't look old, they look dirty, and we can't see any face or broken back. I would suggest to let the photo speak for itself.
