The Alliance Theater

Alliance, NE

One thing that you don't run across very often is cooperation in getting a picture. Glenn and I were in the middle of photographing this after a day of photographing Carhenge and chasing trains when the lights all went off. An officer of the Alliance Police Department saw what we were doing and then went inside to have the staff turn them back on for us which they gladly did. Small towns can be very friendly places.

Color street photography done at night!
I have never seen it done better and rarely equaled!
The image and circumstance of making it tell so perfectly the wonderful nature of our small towns.

I remember it like yesterday and how they thought it no problem to turn the light back on for us. Perhaps some free advertising, but a few years late.
Love the pop of colour on such a empty sidewalk.

That's a great use of pixels, yourself. It's nice to hear that you got that kind of help in getting the shot. V
