not much better than the first attempt, unfortunately. Hard to get good light as the bar is under the Loop El tracks

Today I received an email that read:


“you have a picture posted of the sky ride bar located on van buren. my husband is in that picture, and wants to be removed”

I responded:
sure, for $50,000 I’ll airbrush him off the public sidewalk.

As far as I know, photographs of people on sidewalks don’t require model releases, especially if there is more than one person in the shot. The email writer didn’t specify which one was her husband – 33.33 percent chance of guessing correctly. Maybe he was supposed to be at work at the time? (If my EXIF data is correct, I took the photo at 2:40 in the afternoon.)

If she pays me $10,000 I’ll put a black line over one of the guy’s face, $25,000 special for all three – and the pigeon included no extra charge.

Got a good laugh at the ridiculousness of it.
