I’ve let my lighter side win me over yet once more.
Back in the Eighties I was on a visit to London. I was on my way to visit “Grays of Westminster” For those that don’t know It’s a Nikon only camera shop. On my way there, my way was blocked by police making a human cordon for a Miners demo march. I mingled with all the press photographers raised my Nikon FM2 shouted “oi ” and this Policeman turned around and looked at me as if to say “I got your number sonny Jim!” However what makes the shot for me is where he has is hands.
Camera Nikon FM2
Lens Nikon E 100mm F2.8

Fantastic eye contact, David! That’s really great when it happens. Always makes me ponder what the subject is thinking about when they catch the photographer!

All hands on deck by the look of it, wonder what’s happening in his back pocket! Great shot of being in the thick of it David!

A police man’s life is a tough one. So who are we to begrudge him a few perks of the job? Great ‘capture’!

Great capture. He looks guilty to be caught with his hands where they shouldn’t be. 😀
