    It's right at the entrance of the "new" West Bend complex. I was shooting from driver's left from where the emergency vehicles park.

    Cool. I haven't seen the new layout yet, I'll have to go up there and check it out.

    Why did you use such a fast shutter speed?
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Probably because it's kind of a dumb question. Why WOULDN'T he use a fast shutter in that situation? All a longer shutter is going to do in that situation is blur the object you're trying to focus on.
