Description street shot. Warsaw.

I have to admit I did some color adjustments here... but the camera cannot catch everything a terrified human eye can see...

After I did this shot, the Beret guards (here turned around) noticed me. As I made a run for my life, I could hear the buzzing of hundreds of jet-propelled bus seats behind me. With eyes of my imagination I could see Berets flying off every window, swarming the sky in great rage, but I was too scared to look.
I ran and ran, and eventually hid under a bridge. I lost htem.. I think... hopefully they didn't see my face....

I like this picture alot, the perspective is great, since it shows that little bit of the sky that tells the viewer that the buildings aren't going on for ever vertically, but horizontally it might seem that they do... which I think looks really cool. The colors and contrast looks very nice too.

mwahaha
who knows, maybe berets are now so technically advanced they have jet propelled bus seats powerful enough to reach autsralia...
...yet if that was really true... ...
no, just kidding.
just kidding.. yes...

Amazing picture...I really like it...it draws you into the people! lol It seems like you went on quite the adventure. i had a similar encounter, except I was down by the water on land owned by a cement factory. To get there I had to hop a fence with a large sign, stating in bold print "No Trespassing" (Like that's going to keep me out! lol) Anyways, some man in a car pulled up behind me and I bolted out of there so fast!!

hey - "no trespassing" means an obvious invitation!
thanks, also for the story, but remeber - if you hear a jet-propelled bus seat some time, don't even think. run. run your ass off ...
