 I was driving home from work looking for an empty parking lot that was still catching some of the low sunlight. Found one and hopped out and took several shots over and around the sewer grate. As I was packing up I noticed a car pulling into the far end of the lot and as I climbed into my car I hear a short burst of the siren. Turns out you probably shouldn't pick a synagogue parking lot to be crawling around doing weird stuff around the sewer grate. This is especially true if someone had spray painted red swastikas on that synagogue a week or two ago. The officer was very nice after he found out what I had been doing and even liked one the the shots I showed him.

This is really in your face. I like it. It has a textural and brightness factor.
