When I saw the topic for this LPS, I thought of this shot I took in New Orleans while I was down there on business and taking a break at a jazz festival in a (public) park. He came over & spoke TO me after he caught me taking this (zoomed) shot. I just about lost bladder control and wasn't about to argue legalities with him!!! Kept the shot though. ;-)

Sorry, I love this shot and just had to share. :-)

    What a very cool shot, and from the look on that guards face, I wouldn't want to come against him...he looks MEANNNNNNNN lol lol
    You're only as good as your next photo....
    One day, I started writing, not knowing that I had chained myself for life to a noble but merciless master. When God hands you a gift, he also hands you a whip; and the whip is intended solely for self-flagellation...I'm here alone in my dark madness, all by myself with my deck of cards --- and, of course, the whip God gave me."

    What a great shot! You definately could not have captured a better expression on the guard's face. Bonus you managed to keep it! thumb.gif

    High Dynamic Range (HDR) on a single RAW file. If you Google on that you should find lots of info.
