As I went past a garage on my way home from picking up a (fully working) replacement camera, ie doesn't take 2 seconds to work out the focus on a shot, I saw these protestors outside a petrol station. After I'd filled up I ran over and asked them if I could take some photo's (cheeky, huh?) which they were all quite happy with. (First hurdle crossed! I've done it now!) Anyways, there's me on a traffic island getting photos of them between traffic going past and this drunk starts hassling them!! Damn shame I forgot about the continous shooting button...however, I got a couple of cool shots, of which this is one. It was so perfect timing, one of them even asked if I'd set it up! I assured her not and told her I'd have been much more prepared for it and had my tripod out..... he he.. actually, they were all really nice and I had a good chat with them. Hope U like, and sorry I wittered on!
