I do a pretty good imitation of a Bag Lady don't I? What with a torn poncho & a brace of camera bags beneath, trudging through monsoon... You're gonna make em scared to go on a photo walk with me Dave, for fear I'll make them do what we did. Not everyone is as crazy as we are.

Crazy ? Yes, but I would do it all over again for I had such a great time. That's completely out of my norm but sometimes we should come out of our comfort zone, even if to gain some sanity.

Dave, nice photo, as always. Minnie, I'd be right there with both of you.

Thanks Bob !!! Glad to hear someone else willing to be right there.

I should write that down and carry it with me as a reminder because I know I will forget.

I like this image for a number of reasons. Great leading fence line, she is perfectly positioned, the headlights are blurred. Excellent conditions for B/W. My only comment, I would have considered another perspective other than eye level.

Hold on there Miss, I have some questions for you. Please present your ID Mam. You say you are a bag lady but no self respecting bag lady would be out in this weather, they would have already found shelter. And that is an expensive looking camera, do you have a receipt or proof that it is yours? What, you say you are out shooting photographs, now who in their right mind would be doing that in this weather and at this time of the morning?
Mr. Chin, you state that this bag lady is your photographic partner? I will need to see your ID as well. You say you just wanted to do a little something out of your comfort zone? Why don't you just try eating some raw oysters for breakfast with some cold beers? You could do that inside and also be dry.
Yea Minnie & Dave I am a little crazy but not stupid but I would have been there right alongside you if I could have. Maybe in the not to distant future.

A wonderful picture, well done. The added bonus is Minnie is your model. Your dedication also showed , since you were there in the rain at 7AM to take the shot.
