Someone should put a big windup key on the back of it but I don't think the Cops inside would be too pleased

Well that really projects authority, doesn't it?

t's probably so that if there is a serious mess and traffic is completely blocked, they can take the sidewalks, LOL!

I kept waiting to shoot the line of 20 officers coming out of that patrol car... but it never happened

This would score bonus points with the police force/community relationship!

Used for high speed pursuits in rush hour traffic no doubt!

Mebbe so, but if I were a cop driving that thing, I'd sure hate to have to transport a perp!

Imagine pulling over an F-150, Denali or something like that on that cruiser...

Well, it is different when you have to enforce the law. It is smart to drive a smallish vehicle, especially in cities... I myself drive a mazda3 hatchback (not the new design) which is average-to-smaller when compared with other USA vehicles on the road.

I can guarantee, if that car was assigned to someone on my shift, the rest of the shift would get together to have the wind up key made and mounted on it. No need for the public to do it. We would then put pics all over the Internet ourselves!

finally got some 35mm films from the last 18 months processed, the Alliums and fountain are from Agfa Vista 200 and the flowers is from a roll or Truprint 200 ASA from I'm guessing mid 1990's exposed at 100 ASA. Not edited apart from size/rotation

All taken using my KX with SMC-M 40-80 zoom

This one also the KX and SMC-M 40-80 zoom, taken in the gardens of Holker Hall south lakes Cumbria UK.
No adjustments apart from size.

Just trawling the back catalogue for something else, and this brought back some happy memories of a time in South Africa, so I thought I'd share it. Z-1 with 400mm I think on Provia 100

I like the tiny figures in the bottom right giving a sense of scale. Very well done.
