I have been shooting for about a year now. 3 Times now I have had police officers inquire about what im doing standing in a bush on the side of the road holding my rig on a tripod. well ... Taking pictures of Bugs of coarse! I have never had a real problem but its kinda a pain anytime that I seem to come across a police car I have to explain myself. Some have enjoyed my days shots tho :hug::
I know a little on how police officers think. I knew one that had a saying. "If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck... Its probly a duck" So... If its odd that im in a bush, odd that im in a bush holding a 4 foot long black thing (tripod), odd that im in a bush, holding my long black thing at night, somethings most likely not right. No blame for me standing out lol.
