There is a story to every picture. Sometimes the picture is poo poo and the story of how it came to be is interesting. We often see the images, but the circumstances in which they were taken are left unknown. So show us a picture and tell us something amazing about how it came to be! I will start.  When out on a commute I found a fire and a bunch of journalists taking pictures. So I started taking pictures of the journalists. This is my favourite of the bunch I took. See this guy? Sorry I clipped his head, but he was heading right for me at an amazing pace. He has a nice expensive looking Canon and looks super important within the press area set aside by the police. Clearly a journalist. He sees me taking his picture and freaks out. Tells me not to take his picture. Me, a small, short person with a cheap unknown-brand DSLR, a 20 year old hand-me-down manual focus 50mm lens, a pink-and-white striped girly sweater, a purple backpack and a big smile. drat, I'm about as non-threatening as it gets and this guy just totally loses his cool, stops paying attention to the fire and starts trying to scare me away. I had people tell me not to take their picture. I'm cool with that. I never had a photographer tell me that before. (Nor has anyone ever been so aggresive about it. Hell, no one has ever been aggresive at all.) Dude, grow some balls, eh? You take pictures of people for a living and don't want your picture to be taken? At least take it like a man, sheesh! Wuss.

I will actually play along with the original thread concept! ---_0146 by khyrre, on Flickr I did the Real Escape Game with a few friends in Japantown in San Francisco. Groups of up to 11 are locked in a room (with two proctors) and have one hour to solve a bunch of puzzles and get out. But it's really hard, because as of last week, only 12 out of about 720 teams have successfully done it. I tried it with three friends (we're the three on the left of the front row and the leftmost guy in the back row), and we got paired with another group of seven. We made it pretty close to the end, but the last couple of puzzles required pretty big leaps of logic, so we probably wouldn't have been able to get it even with a couple more minutes. At the end, they have you take a big group picture while holding up signs saying you succeeded or failed. The proctor guy was nice enough to use my Pentax ME Super to take a picture and even managed to get reasonable focus on the picture, except he pointed it way too high and cut off the signs we were holding (I cropped out a ton of empty wall above us).
