 Kodak CX7525 I goofed today. My brother was removing phone lines from a demo site, and saw a few things he knew I'd drool over. So we went by after work, into a part of town I've never been in. On the way to the demo site I saw several things more to shoot. We had some time to kill so he took me around to several other areas he thought I might like, one of which is an old cotton warehouse. I took a few snaps of the fire escape and the ragged name on the building, then went around the corner where I saw a beautiful rusty water tower. Well, after snapping a few of the water tower, a silver SUV pulled up wicked fast nose to nose with my brother's truck (wherein he and my son were white-boy dancing to techno music). A fella got out of the SUV and proceeded to tell me what I was doing was illegal thanks to Homeland Security. What I failed to realize as we were working our way through this area was the fact that we were 100 yards away from a Terminal of the Port of Houston (no, I didn't know what a 'Terminal' was until I asked). Totally understandable I guess considering the world we live in. I was very accomodating, and to be honest, didn't realize anything I was doing was illegal. I apologized and offered the film to him but he declined, taking my name and my brother's license plate number instead. The whole experience was a tad nerve-racking and left a bitter taste in my mouth. I have a bad habit of getting lost in the moment, oblivious to everything around me. Lesson learned. | |
