Don't try this in Nevada or NHP 702.

West Las Vegas Nevada

Early Sunday morning I'm on my way to meet another photographer, being out the night before I left one of my two cameras in the truck overnight. Not a normal practice and additionally tempertures had dropped into the mid twenties.
Once remembering this I tested my camera (no flash) just two quick shots of any subject. Which happended to be a Nevada Highway patrol crusier stopped in front of me for a traffic signal. I took the pictures the camera worked and I made a left turn this patrolman didn't like the idea and I was pulled over.
No citation I had committed no offense, but I received the third degree for taking his picture moral of the story do not take a photo of a Highway Patrolman in Nevada...lol

At least he was observant. To see someone behind you taking a photo......wow.
