Gore Park Fountain

I was in Gore Park last night, taking this picture. I shot nearly 30 individual frames, and used 2 of them, with tone-mapping, to create this shot. I’m fairly pleased with it. It was intended as a background for a shot I took of the Constant k cast on the set. Sadly, the latter pic didn’t turn out (curses!). But I’m working on alternatives.

Anyway, I think I’m becoming paranoid. A guy came and chatted a little with me about my camera, and I chatted back. Then, as abruptly as he had shown up, he said his brief goodbye and left. This rattled me. I finished up, packed up, and walked back to the car, looking over my shoulder, so to speak (and sometimes literally) every 30 seconds or so. I passed the guy on the other side of the fountain, talking on a payphone. I passed other guys. Some of them were on payphones. I guess I wouldn’t have been so weirded out, except that the car was parked, all by its lonesome, down 3 nearly deserted, dark streets. Great place to get mugged.

Nothing happened, of course. I blame my paranoia on my poor sleeping yesterday.
