This was waiting for me when I came out of Shopko today. I had a flashback to when I was 14 and stole some makeup from the downtown Woolworths. I saw them when I went in and thought, "Too bad I don't have my camera, wonder if the place is being robbed."
But I had my tough camera in my purse and snapped some shots on the way out. It was set on black and white which turned out to be fitting. A cute cop immediately came up to me and said, "Just taking some pictures, huh?"
I showed him the camera and asked what was going on. He said, "Nothing."
Dang, I never thought a pocket camera could be mistaken for something else, maybe I should have gotten blue instead of maybe-someone-overreacting-would-mistake-this-for-a-gun-black.
Two of the three cop cars followed me down two long streets to the Beltline and then some for good measure. It could have gone very differently.

Something odd happened with this photo, cropped and using the noir filter in Photos |

Cropped and saved in Elements, I think I like the weird one better |
