    More Johnny Cash

    Ooh this is a long post for me.

    I had such a fun evening yesterday. I took some more photographs of my friend, Ben.

    While I was waiting for him to turn up I noticed an old car in the car park. Couldn't resist using it as a prop! haha

    It looks fantastic with textures and extra grain added. I LOVE it!



    This was hilarious...
    This shot was taken in the doorway of women's public toilets! Don't worry we never went in haha.
    A woman walked up to us to use the toilets and the look on her face was a picture in itself! She looked at me and Ben, probably thinking we were a couple of wacko's lol. (Well, she's probably not far wrong there actually haha).
    She was looking up to make sure it was the women's toilets she was about to walk into.
    I said, "Don't worry about us we are just taking pictures." lol
    That's when Ben said, "I'll sing you a song while you use the toilets".
    I cracked up!



    While taking this shot a car turned the corner of the street. I laughed and said to Ben, "Omg! It looks like you are escaping from prison and have been spotted by the guards using the spot light!" I was even making siren noises through my hand hahahaha.



    Not quite the same as my Kodak POTD shot but similar because I wanted to re-shoot it.
    Even THIS was funny.
    I was getting ready to take the shot, Ben's sat on the cold hard floor with his butt getting numb and the street light kept flickering. I told Ben it was on the blink haha. Then all of a sudden ... POOF! It turned off!
    We both cracked up. Ben pointed his hand up toward the light and started clicking his fingers. "C'mon, c'mon, come back on," he said to the light. And it came back on.
    I couldn't stop laughing!
    Aah the power of Cash hey? lol



    Have a fun day everyone! :thumbsup:

    Super story and some great PR pictures for Ben. Love each one and story made them even more special.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??
