[QUOTE="hark, post: 433804, member: 13196"] First of all, I'd like to say the photo is quite impressive. :) Umm...honestly Jake...how many middle-aged men WITH cameras go around taking photos strictly of buses? Yes, the thought of a middle-aged man taking a photo aimed at a bus is going to set off red flags. Sorry...I know it isn't what you want to hear, but it is the reality of where our country has gone. You getting flagged has nothing to do with your character as a person. Unfortunately too many child-lovin', HORNY men have made it difficult to take photos anywhere in the vicinity of children. Do people ever approach you and strike up conversations when you are out shooting? I don't know if it's because I'm a female, but I feel like a magnet drawing in all kinds of people who want to stop and chat when I'm carrying a camera. Go figure. I'll be sure to keep your situation in mind should I ever wish to photograph buses. In fact, sometimes I think the bus drivers hold conventions at either McDonald's or Burger King because I've been wanting to take a photo of the multitude of buses in their parking lots! :p Thankfully I am on a first name basis with one of the administrators in this local school district. ;) On a serious note, do a few Google searches for you name in case the report makes one of your local news outlets. :( You just never know....
