Timing plays a big part!

Hey all,
I'll keep popping in from time to time :)
I went out this afternoon to try and take advantage of the setting sun,
but was not getting inspired by much. Then I saw a police car with his lights on,
and then another one going down a different street.
It looked like maybe they were chasing someone and were trying to cut him off.
I figured what the heck, I might as well follow and see what's up.
Well my timing was a little off, I was probably about 20 seconds too late
to get this in action, but yet, none of the local papers will have these shots!
Mind you, these were taken through my windshield, and I had no time to check my settings,
so they may be a little dark...

    Yes, they are a little dark, but you could do some post work to correct that. So was this just weather conditions or a case of too much Christmas spirits?

    As much as this is my "home" forum, I am not adventurous enough to follow a police chase...

    You are right -- a few seconds earlier would have probably had the officer addressing the driver before he exited the car.

    Well, I finally found something written about it, but all it says is that he lost control of his car, and was cited for failure to use due care...of well, thanks for commenting!

    It was the garage, and appears that no one was hurt, good thing!

    Ha! I probably should be more cautious and not seek that kind of adventure, but hasn't gotten me into trouble yetmwink.gif
