Ethics 101

The guy was an NPPA member when I was still riding a Big Wheel. Damn shame to throw that career down the toilet just to spiff up a photo of an egret.

Overheard on the scanner: “three people shot in a shed behind a residence on 300 South”

After an hour or so of watching and photographing police officers search the house and the shed with guns drawn while the young lady at right sat handcuffed behind a car in the street, we finally got the story from the police.

Seems the woman had called 911 and said that three people had been shot in her shed. But when officers arrived, the family in the home had no idea what the officers were talking about.

They searched the shed, searched the house, no dead bodies.

Turns out the gal has a history of drug abuse and mental instability, according to the family. She was arrested for filing a false report.

While the police were searching the house, the grandmother sat in a chair on the sidewalk and chatted with one of the police officers.

Dixie D-Line Portrait

Got the assignment to shoot a portrait of the Dixie State defensive line…. So my idea was to shoot the view that an opposing running back would have after getting tackled by the defensive line and this is what I came up with… done lying on my back on the rather hot artificial turf with two strobes and a couple pocket wizards in the ten minute window I had between the end of practice (at noon in 100 degree heat) and these guys heading off to get ice baths…

Uncle Warren

How come Uncle Warren didn’t pull this sort of thing when he was here in St. George?

This sounds like it would’ve been fun to witness and photograph and all AP has is courtroom sketches.

Texas doesn’t allow courtroom photography?

It’s a crying shame that there are no photos of this….

And has anybody else noted the coincidental fact that the courthouse in Texas where Jeffs is being tried is the Tom Green County Courthouse?
