    Funny shot. I like it. It reminded me of the scam that some Americans were running to drive in the car-pool lanes.

    You're kidding me. I have to admit that I took a second look because I though it was a person sitting shotgun.

    Her lower half was in the back seat - red heels no less!

    I immediately thought of The Police's Be My Girl Sally, thus the title :D

    Thanks B.D. I'm glad you got a chuckle. She seems like a bit of a stiff date if you ask me.

    I really like how you shot and PP'd this shot, from choice of aperture to the framing. The hint of anticipation (?) on his face adds a lot.

    Well done!

    First thing I thought was the HOV lanes--usually they are the blow up varitety though and I never heard of one wearing red heels! I think what made me think that was the seatbelt (either he's really trying to pass her off as a passenger for the HOV patrol, or he loves her and wants to protect her--who am I to judge?)

    Fantastic captuer--I'm also glad you got her legs in the back seat--very funny.
