yay, dancing on a car.
just after that, a 15 year old guy told me "hey you don't take photos now, you'll take some after the guys are gone" and i said "ok" but it was too late.

today, those young guys threw rocks at photojournalists, chased them. i heard some people say they hated journalists even more than cops. i was happy to be on their side, really. i hid my camera most of the time. they robbed many people today. destroyed a guy's face.
cops did nonsense things too. everything was a mess.
anyway i'm.. my jaw is so tensed and i'm shaking, i'm exhausted. today was horrible and uber scary.

polka by *Gonzale Chris linked me to this long ago. Amazingly powerful shot, and super brave of Gonzale to be shooting with a DSLR. To compare her to a wartime photographer when taking this shot would not be an understatement. Note: The 'security' guy is one of them. (Suggested by `cweeks and Featured by `Obsidian-Fox)

I love everything about this photograph: the background, the colors, the way the men make me want to jump and dance polka on a car too...

And yet, for some reason it seems different from everything else I usually see from you, but I can't pinpoint exactly what it is.

Anyways, gorgeous photo! :D

erk...hope you hid your camer well :) I would have been terrified to take it out at all at all - so I salute you!
and great photo as usual :clap:

That's a pretty amazing capture of some pretty stupid violence against what I'm guessing is a completely innocent person's car... I don't pretend to understand the reasoning behind the riots, but I so hate people who think that smashing random people's belongings and violence is going to solve anything.

Great photo though.

Nice to see it thru your eyes, keep up with these awesome pics. Great job covering it all.
