His wife must have been somewhat peeved.Shot at 4 a.m. with a Pentax LX in "available moon". Kodak P3200 film pushed to 12800 ISO and developed accordingly. Exposure (hand held) of 1/8th of a second at F2.5 with a Tamron 180mm F2.5 SP lens. Technically, one of the worst images I have ever had published, but one of the ones I am most proud of. The officer here was apprehending two suspects in a series of convenience store robberies in Talladega, Alabama.

Wow this is great. Brings back some not so nice memories though. In the mid 70's during my newspaper years, our county finances didn't provide for a forensic photographer, so I occasionally got called to assist on my end of the county. One that still haunts my memory was documenting the crime scene of a man who'd been stabbed about a dozen times with a large butcher knife (still in his back).
Wasn't his wife, a gruesome perverted tale, that's best left in the past. Created a lot of fear in the community, as the butcher knife was one of a half dozen or so taken during a grocery store break in the night before.
