re: http://www.streetphoto.net/paw50.html

Sorry to get around to commenting so late, but I spent my weekend
sorting a hard drive crash.

I like both shots, but I think the first is my favorite.   At first, I
was put off a bit by all the backs facing the camera, and I would have
liked to see the face of the guy talking to them a little better, but
the whole image with the lawmen and their steeds is kinda wild-wild
west in a way, like a posse getting ready to ride.

In urban settings, these bicycle cops do an amazing job.  I once saw a
couple of bike cops chase down a purse snatcher on Canal Street in New
Orleans. When one caught up to the running man, he just dived off the
bike and truly "collared " the culprit.

Regards,
Sonny in Natchitoches
