Well, okay, um. Do I haaave to be honest?
Yes?
[sigh] Here goes.
This shoot marks the second time in my photographic journey where I have been yelled at by a security guard. Is this normal? I mean, do photographers normally get kicked out of public areas by security officers??? Or is it just me? Am I a magnet for trouble?
See, we were in downtown Winston, minding our own business, shooting in nooks and crannies up and down the street. But apparently we shot in one too many spots. Cuz here comes a limping, middle-aged man with a very heavy 5 o'clock shadow. I was too busy focusing and photographing to notice...but when he barked at me, I totally knew he was there.
He kinda had a lisp.
(Which, I'll be honest, didn't breed the credibility that his ID badge and crispy pressed uniform commanded.)
So apparently he didn't like us loitering around his building.
Sigh.
And it was such a stately building, too!
Oh well. We left, found other alleys and buildings to shoot around, and learned a lesson of photography: watch out for the limping security officer with a lisp.
Yes?
