probably the only shot i've ever taken through the windows at home, quickly taken with the android once i realized i hadn't done anything wrong... taken august 2011. i walked out to the kitchen for some grub and found 3 police vehicles from 3 different jurisdictions sitting in my driveway. unmarked state police durango with officer and a huge assault rifle, clayton police ( silver car - a small town in the next county) and wyoming police (blue and gold car - at least that one was local).

after a quick mental run down of what i may have done wrong lately and coming up blank i called work and found out a bank robbery occurred, the robbers got away but then the police chased them and they they shot at the police and finally wrecked their car on my road.

one robber was shot as soon as he got out of the car, minor injuries, probably less than he received when the police got him to the station. the other robber got away and hid in a corn field so they gridlocked everything for a couple mile radius. then night fell and we were supposed to get a direct hit from a hurricane the next day so they left him to sink in the field. eventually they found him two weeks later hiding out in a dumpy motel a few miles away. he spent that morning a standoff with police. and that was also the same we the earthquake struck in virginia... it was a busy week.

Beth - I'm not sure there was enough action in your story...!

Sounds like a Jason Bourne movie

Ooh, look what's through the round(ish) window. Nice one Kev!

 

[Brian Moore]

That's no a windae, Kev. That's a porthole! Very cool.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Brilliant Kev!

Reminds me of my Uncle's house in Sheffield - the best view from the house was from the upstairs loo

I used to stand on the loo seat as a kid so I could peak out of the top window

One thing that I noticed.. you all have very clean windows I need to clean mine before I take a shot..after going back home from work though..

 

[Pete Askew]

Shot this the other night and, as it is 'on theme', I thought I may as well post it. I was taken by the snow swirling around the light but the angle wasn't quite right. Still, here it is...
