Lunchtime photography

I went out during lunch to buy some birthday cards. When I got back to work a lady outside asked me to take her picture with the Locke & Ober sign. She explained exactly how she wanted it taken (landscape, not portrait) and even had me pose for the shot so she could figure out the best angle.

When she gave me the camera she insisted that I put the camera string around my wrist.

I took the first shot and showed it to her, fully expecting it not to be acceptable. I was preparing myself to spend my lunch hour snapping pictures of this lady and her overpriced restaurant. But after all that setup, she looked at the picture and said, "Eh, that's fine." She thanked me and walked away.
