NIKON D70 - 1/400 sec, f4.5 at 70mm
Tonight marks a welcome return to DICPB. I can't recall what the charge is for drink driving in the US, so I can't translate for you, but here DIC means Drunk in Charge of a motor vehicle. Which is odd because DICOAMV seems more relevant. DICB means I'm photoblogging after 2 beers and 3 glasses of Church Road Merlot.
Anyways. tonight while watching the news, we saw an item where the Crown Prosecutor was describing the case. Apparently a good for nothing, filthy, bunch of lowlifes decided to beat up a drunk guy as he walked home from the pub one night back in March. They hit him with a baseball bat. Actually it was likely a softball bat. I'm not sure if there is any difference. It killed him anyway.
The Crown Prosecutor (I think that's the same as your DA) said something along the lines of "the defendants decided to attack an invulnerable person as he walked home, intoxicated, from the pub".
Invulnerable, I thought to myself. If he was invulnerable, then he wouldn't have a problem with thugs. He is after all invulnerable. Now if on the other hand he was vulnerable, thats a whole different kettle of fish.
It's good to see the Government hiring the finest legal minds to prosecute the scumbags!
The Photo
Part 2 of my series of "Tastes good on the BBQ". The light was really great yesterday. The Sun was out for an hour and then it rained cats and dogs for 20 minutes, then the sun came out again. Everything looked really good bathed in sunshine with nasty angry dark clouds behind. While I knew the light was fantastic, unfortunately my creativity didn't match the conditions.
I knew what I wanted this guy to look like. But my command of potatoshop tonight is somewhat lacking.
UPDATE: DUI. It's DUI. Driving Under the Influence of a photoblog
