Saturday night I was out in a questionable area, needles to say I was taking a shot in the middle of the street. I made sure that I was looking out for oncoming traffic. The street was empty for the most part, there was this shot that I had to take. 15 second exposure, a few seconds or so into the exposure I hear a large noise, a gargle of engine noise. Then out of the corner of my eye I spotted a car speeding in my direction, as it turned the corner I noticed the passenger door swing open….
The car did not stop but kept on speeding on, the passenger was trying to hold the door closed. As the car turned the corner the door came open fully, then was pulled half closed. They must have stolen the car and broken into it from the passenger side hence the door would not close. The noise was from a cold engine being gunned, petal to the metal late in that cold night the engine did not take kindly to this. I must have been an unusual site for them as well, they passed me wondering what I was doing here. I heard strange noises of music or singing from the vehicle as it sped by, it was all surreal.
Sensing this was not the greatest spot, and questioning this encounter I packed up my stuff, and drove off a few blocks till I noticed something else interesting (hydrant shot above).
In the background I could here the gargling noise of that car, circling the area I was just in. Either the chop shop was closed and they had to circle the block or they were looking for me.
