Challenge: Shopping Carts (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Nikon D610
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5 ED-IF
Location: Asda Supermarket
Date: Aug 11, 2015
Date Uploaded: Aug 11, 2015

 Waited until as late as possible to shoot this but still managed to attract an audience on the supermarket carpark. One store employee kindly asked if I was having a problem. 'Not until I joined the DPL' I thought.

Manual setup using 3 strobes.

Thx for the great comments - helps to keep me trying things.

hahahaha! So fun!

LOL @ your notes. :D

I used to always take my own groceries to my car until...

One of the employees with whom I had a friendship kindly said to me, "You know that when you take your own groceries, that you're making our job less secure? We need people to want us to take their groceries to their car for them. Please let me take yours."

I've never taken my own groceries again. :D

Congratulations on your RIBBON!

Voted earlier, coming back to comment... TRIPE! And I LOVE it! I was trying to get a shot of me "caught in the act" of loading a cart into my car, but the store management and security just wouldn't go for it. :(

Love this shot and the story it tells! It's my top pick in this challenge to be sure.
