While shooting, a security guard approached us and started asking questions about length of the lenses we were using (we had our Canon DSLR's and my wife had an 80 - 200 mounted). He also seemed curious about what we were shooting. I wondered about his interest until I noticed that the Davis-Besse nuclear power plant was visible on the horizon. At that point the war on terrorism became very real, even to us in the Midwest. BTW, if we were using our Leicas, I doubt we would have captured his attention.
