I had a fun idea I briefly considered for playing with this and reposting in the challenge using my thermal camera acting like stealing your PIN numbers (which happens BTW) but right now right now I just don’t energy or focus to do it. Paul

I'm guessing you were picked up by the security camera. Imagine the reaction of the person (if any) reviewing its images and/or video of your activity. Not to make you paranoid, but you're probably on file by now. Do you have any contacts at the LAPD or FBI who can confirm? :-)

There is a reason for the strange camera settings. The initial picture was supposed to be the teller machine taking cash at almost 1 a.m., and I was going to title it..."The thief...." or something. But these machines really do take your money quickly! It just vanishes before I could shoot anything.

Then there was the real problem that I was on a busy street corner with a fairly large camera taking pictures of the bank teller machine and I really did not want to attract any police involvement or questioning as to why I was doing this.

The first few takes were dark or really a shadowy circle of light...so I spun the dials to get me out of there but the odd settings did produce an acceptable image!

I refuse to use them. I believe they snare too many people into overdrafts.

As a second note, that seems to be a very different set of shooting parameters than I would have thought you used.

They were also more likely to give lollipops.
