For the story, see the newspapers and my website. Awesome oppurtunity for me to be there for 2 reasons. First becaue i was the only photographer there and the media was rather interested. Second because it is normally illegal to take pictures there, but the security guards that are friends from work allowed me to do so anyways.

ah well the lock is fine but the bolt only has one screw in the hook end so it just swings open regardless of the fact that it has a lock on it (not to mention all the rust on it), and well yeah seeing the lock has quality written on it makes me smile when i see it...

No, I meant why did you use ISO 1600? You could have used lower values for the other two..
