Description
I have not been in bars in years. I went to some a few years ago not to drink but just to see if they change. i saw they did not. cops was there breaking up a fight. some guy feel up a woman and her boy friend was mad so the man who did that got in a fight with the boyfriend. I Say " nothing change at all. i remember the same things going on when I went to these places. One reason I left it not worth it. I did crazy things too.
I wonder how many people get killed or hurt at these places? I know the closed them down in the 1920's but people still drink and people die. See the movies of the roaring 20's and the mob. But i think it world wide and all thought out history things like this happen
Here i trying to show violence and the music there make you cry most the time for it sad words to the songs most the time.
anyway this came out of sitting in the dark, listening to the battery radio for the lights is out . Got candles and flashlights. Wish to take photos so I get this guitar my son have and my .357mag gun. and I started shooting I first just had the .357 out on the table and two candles then I added a flashlight and then I saw the guitar and set them all on the glass table. took may shots and this one i LIKED THE BEST. i KEEP ON MOVEING THISGS AROUND TO GET TO THIS IMAGE. i WAS HAPPY WHEN i SAW THE IMAGE.
tHERE IS NO BULLITS IN THE .357 SO i WOULD NOT SHOT MYSELF. i WISH I THOUGHT OF CUCKing the .357 but did not . oh well can not think of every thing.
hate cap lock lol sorry but there too much to redo now.
thanks for looking and comment too.
I do not go to these places no more. went a few years ago to take photos of the girl who dance on top the bar and that the last time.

Excellent concept and top-notch render in this superbly composed photograph. My hat off to you!

Na this is absolute cool. Great warm mood and a shadow of the gun on the instrument is a great touch. Somehow I would like to see a gun in a turned way, so we can see a cylinders but still excelent shot.

I stay away from bars because of cigarette smoke and noise, and of course the inherent danger of being around crazy people using being drunk a reason to fight. I use to go but decided it was not for me. Jerry Reed died the other day. this would have been a nice tribute to his legacy. anyway outstanding composition and lighting

Kind of resembles something from an old Gene Autry Western movie. Good eye for composition, Jock.

This is a Double Shot, The Camera can Shoot and you did it and the Gun can shoot. Two Shoot make a Double Shot. This is Very Cool to sit in dark and think up such wonderful work. Gustov put me in the dark also when it came up here and storm for 56 hours. Snapped a power pole down the street, but I already tell that so it is enough already!!! Nice work my friend!!

Good combination of subjects!

Wow. Jock! A powerful image. And some powerful words, too. I love the lighting on this, the candles and flashlight give it a warm cozy feel, but the gun sends shivers up your spine. Makes me think of some country western music.
