Montgomery, Alabama | Oak Avenue

Posted: August 29th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: dougKIM photography, Film, Leica

I was driving along the Selma to Montgomery route of the historic Civil Rights march in 1966. Met this gentlemen who had a soda vending machine on his porch. Talked to him for a while when the local neighborhood muscle / patriarch came by and gave me a choice: Leave or I’ll bust your camera and bust your face.

Good times.

I left.

    Yup, you’ll meet assholes everywhere. Particularly fascinating though that you met an asshole and a friendly person at the same time at the same place.

    Ha. That is very true. At least I got a soda out of it.
