RAINBOWS & PARIS

SNAPSHOT

I was on an assignment for the local newspaper last week and I saw this image so I shot a couple of snaps really quick. I learned that I really have to clean my full frame camera.

On another assignment last week I had to get photos of two of the top players of the local university baseball team. In one case I chose to stand in front of the hitter but behind a protective cage. I stood a little to close to the cage and took a line drive off the lens hood on my camera. Got the shot and a small cut on my forehead. Lucky it wasn't a lot worse.

FULL MOON AT THE BAR

 

 STRANGE NIGHT

I knew the full moon brought out strange people but I had my fill on Staurday night.

First I had a deranged homeless guy who stood outside the door of my bar for two hours because I wouldn't let him in. At one point he was point a finger gun at me through the door. We called the cops and had him chased off. The cop said that he had seen him in the Jail 5 days before.

Second, and best, was the fact that at about 5am my two customers, both males in their forties, started to talk seriously about the parenting of Billy Ray Cyrus with his daughter...really, that's what they were talking about at a bar. During the time that these guys were talking I also found out that the louder of the two guys was actually the one who had brought the homeless guy to the bar earlier in the evening (on swing shift)  because he needed a beer and he didn't know the guy was delusional and homeless. I find that hard to believe....it took me about 5 seconds to realize this when the guy first came in the door and I told him to leave.
