Country road surveillance

They were looking for someone they wanted badly.
All four sides of the quarter section had officers with binoculars.
We never did find out.

Jude in the nude?

well spotted, obviously not a "covert" opperation!

Perhaps he was just on his lunch break?
Guest 07-Jun-2005 11:46
You must have had a longer lens than they did! Honestly, I'm surprised they let you take a shot of them. These guys have no sense of humor.
Karen Stuebing07-Jun-2005 10:07
It was me. LOL. Seriously, great capture. Surely your local paper will have something?
Guest 07-Jun-2005 06:05
You were hiding in the bushes, weren't you? I like this b&w photojournalist kind of pics.
Guest 07-Jun-2005 06:02
they werent looking for you were they? hehe
Gary Winters07-Jun-2005 04:50
Pehaps they were looking for a donut delivery truck? Sorry, cheap shot. Maybe they were looking for YOU? Maybe they were looking at some babe in a short skirt walking down the road? Hmmmm....
Guest 07-Jun-2005 01:35
I'm thinking of the dents in the top of the car ... he doesn't look like a featherweight! ;)
Pepe Zyman07-Jun-2005 01:20
Excellent candid shot!
Karen Leaf07-Jun-2005 00:42
I'm glad I found my way home the other night, or they'd still be looking for me, hopefully just like this :)
Agree, we need an update!

Perhaps it's an escaped cow?
jude06-Jun-2005 19:55
I've done that through the windshield.. as fast as possible thinking they'd come get me and my camera..lol
Now I'm curious.. you MUST find out!
Guest 06-Jun-2005 19:46
Were you one of them?
Guest 06-Jun-2005 18:49
Wonder what his chief would say about him sitting on the top of the car? Great Capture.
Robin Reid06-Jun-2005 17:51
How do you know that he wasn't looking for you? ;-)
Black and white finish is spot on.
Anna Yu06-Jun-2005 17:17
Lost kitten maybe. No wait, what did you do NOW, Cliff?
Don't they worry about scratching the paint on the car?
The BW gives it a newspaper-like feeling, good choice.
Jackdad06-Jun-2005 16:39
He's BEHIND YOU! LOL!
Nah, if you ask me he's just working on his tan. ;)
Leo Charette06-Jun-2005 16:09
I donno... if it's not eating donuts, it's out with the binnoculars, but I can see why, definitely looks like a high crime area ;). Excellent capture, Cliff

Well, if the wanted subject had a high powered rifle, he was certainly a good target. Arrggghhh.
