Once again, the police don't like my huge camera. I was shooting at Cumberland Island, Georgia on Saturday. I had taken a shot with the camera set up just beside one of the area's picnic tables, so I sat down to write down my exposure information. A friend who was also photographing walked up and sat down with me. We were talking when a Chevy SUV suddenly sped across the open area and pulled up beside us.

A Park Ranger got out and stroad over to my camera, looked at it, and then questioned us about what we were doing. I guess neither of us made any furtive move because he left his gun in his holster. We began to grill him about various things at the Park - where the horses were that time of year, how long he had been there, whether he got to live on the island. I guess he got tired of being questioned as he quickly drove away. Ha.
