Move Along

Right after I took this picture, three men wearing sunglasses, khaki shorts, and ORANGE t-shirts confronted these gentlemen. As words were exchanged about blues and oranges occupying the opposite sides of the color wheel, the anger became palpable and before I knew it, fists were flying. I was an innocent bystander until they realized that I too coincidentally happened to be wearing a blue shirt, khaki shorts and sunglasses. I used my camera and tripod as a makeshift bow staff, fought my way through two of the men clad in orange and survived to tell the tale. The newspapers referred to this incident as The Battle of the East Wall of the Walker Museum of Modern Art. Modern art makes some people so angry, doesn’t it?
You’re such a weirdo. This is a great picture, t, I love the whole thing put together, especially since the three khaki shorts/blue t-shirt wearers make some semblance of a whole person in their different outfits. at least one of them has different shoes….
