Retail Space: Scan Baby

Another photo from my Retail series. This was on the first roll of film I photographed for this series. I was almost kicked out of this Wal-Mart in Ann Arbor for poking my camera around the store. I was still using my Nikon F4s and 20mm lens. (For those of you who don't know, that is about the biggest 35mm camera in existence).
I was just waiting for security to bust me. And bust me they did, soon after I had photographed the shot gun case they "caught" me in the toy section and asked me "just what the hell I thought I was doing". I made a deal with the security guards, I told them that I would put my lens cap on and not photograph any longer if they allowed me to continue shopping. It worked and they didn't kick me out!
Obie takes the long way.

This is a photo of Ewan McGregor in Siberia on vacation. The two trucks behind him are about to try and cross the flooded road. I spent about 6 hours this weekend watching the entire series Long Way Round. www.longwayround.com So cool to be able to have the resources and "cojones" to travel like they did.
