Thank you Becky. You should have seen the reaction from the gang of six lads hanging from the bars to me taking their picture. I was accused of all sorts so most embarrassing and glad when the doors opened for a sharp exit.

I like this shot a lot -you got the eye drilling into you spot on.
Had the abuse started by then or did it com later. Were they her kids ? or just another traveler ? Normally I shoot a bit wider but you nailed this one perfectly ....I wear a Crucifix around my neck and I have been approached at openings by people I hardly know - grabbing my cross and exclaiming a loud voice .... Have you joined the Pedophile Club now - This means that your are a pedophile too... That is embarrassing and you cannot run of hide - only give back in replica otherwise the gossip machine will work overtime. On a Gig the worst I had was a very big Hells Angel Captain who had his buck knife on my ear and threatening to cut it off - luckily I managed to bluff my way out of it and he bought me a beer.. Another night a very drunken Angels Prospect started to act the prick with photographers and was getting nasty with me when my new Buddy his Captain showed up to rescue me. Keep up the good work and say your prayers ....... it's always good to have some guardian angels show up when you need them .

Hi Tony

Thanks for your comments and the abuse came from these older teenagers when they realised I had taken a picture. The result was worth it but glad when the doors opened! The lady was not with them.Fortunately not as frightening as your Angels encounter. Lot to be said for landscape photography. Best wishes Chris.
