nothing yet huh? no worries. Maybe these just dont appeal to this crowd..

Not sure that much comment is needed. Have to ask, did you really sit out there until after dark to get all the shots?

Some of these look like snap shots but then again being artistic was probably not the number one priority so I would say it looks like you covered it well. (?)

Ken- i was out there until they came and briefed the media ( which i was apart of) then i left. You have to stay to get the whole story.

Nick- explain the "snapshot" comment if you would. Being a photojournalist puts me with the task to tell a story. Creativeness is not the most important, but being able to do so and show what is napping is always a plus.

I think you explained it yourself. Creativeness is not most important. So the fact that some of these look like snapshots isn't really important either. It was a simple comment I made about the photos.

Did any of these shot make it to a local news outlet? Just wondering because the cops talking to each other or getting ready may not be very appealing for a journal, so it may be better to just wait for some action and get 1 shot...

newspaper picked them up but they did not run. didnt turn out to be as newsworthy apart from other things in town going on..

I really like pic #1. I used to do a lot of training classes with the officer when he was still on the dui squad. I'll have to send him a link to the photo.
