From: Jane Galt on 26 Jun 2010 12:28 FYI, for the few friendlies here, I decided to order the SD4000IS. But this group is too infested with communist types to have a viable discussion about photo topics. -- - Jane Galt

Hmm, thanks. I missed what could have been an amazing shot this week. I was driving near downtown Denver on Colfax, in front of the Auraria Campus and as I was stopping for a light, the person with me said that she saw a couple of guys fighting to the left of me, across the street. As I turned, it could have been an amazing shot, the guy who lost was walking across the street towards us in the crosswalk, and the guy who beat him was standing there staring like a bully at him, with fists clenched. The guy who lost had his shirt stretched down to his waist in front and blood all over it. It would have been a powerful photo, but I was driving and had JUST stopped at the light and didn't have the time to grab a camera from my purse, start it up, lower the car window and snap it. -- - Jane Galt
