While I was walking around Old Klang I came across a puddle of water by the side of the road. I could see the reflection of a building and the street light on it and decided to take some shots of it. The odd thing was that there was a man watching me take the photo. He curiously asked me what I was shooting and I told him I was trying to get a shot of the reflection in the puddle.(Though I haven't gotten any keepers of it yet) And with that he proceeded to go into his car when I got a single shot of the puddle and his feet. To be honest this was practically 30% prediction and 70% luck. Sometimes, a little luck is needed in photography, sometimes luck gives you a photo you may never be able to replicate again. I guess that's part of the beauty of photography. My only gripe would be the slight motion blur, but thanks to the motion blur by the feet as well, it only adds to the effect of the photo in my opinion.
One of the most vital aspect of every photographer is patience. It's not just confined to photography, but life itself.
