A photo so good it brings tears to my eyes.
To be fair, the photographer shot a lot of photons at the ICE agent.
Those can be dangerous!Orange irritants? Reminds me of someth… no wait, of someone! 🤔
He really captures the vapid, ho-hum, space cadet, business-as-usual, “this is fine” look in his eyes.
Pepper-spraying people isn’t an “of course” event. It’s an off-course event. This part of the world is broken — and anyone who takes blithe satisfaction and daily pay from it is a broken person.
That was a fine example of gonzo journalism, thank you.
Only good ice agent is a dead ice agent.
Wow
Incredible shot
It is, I don’t know how he stayed calm enough to get that focus on the eyes of his attacker.
And yet…
I can’t not say it …
“Eh, looks like the fascist coward pretty much couldn’t miss, with the way that spray spreads out over his victim. A mediocre shot at best.”
Probably pulled focus as the dickhole was getting ready to spray, did a burst shot, and picked the best out of the group
Can you burst shot with flash on modern cameras? Honest question, I don’t professional photography
Yes, but don’t do that for portrait photography if you want to keep your job.
It’s expected nowadays for mirrorless pro cameras to recognize eyes and autofocus on them.
I wonder how cheaply and effectively you could make a high powered fan rig/battery backpack thing that would move air fast enough to change the direction of this spray
The spray is expected to work in strong winds, so anything battery-powered won’t work.
Well shit. Tru
Here I am over-engineering the revolution, when we already have airzooka.
This is actually the play I think. You know how ridiculous it would look to flee from a battalion of airzooka-men? Not only that, but it’s be iffy to have just a few of these, but a couple hundred?
These dangerous weapons will cause them to fear for their lives.
Tbf “vortex cannon” sounds sci-fi lethal af
picking up an airzooka and making it thwomp would 100% get you shot
I say we start a GoFundMe…bribe someone to install the nozzles on backwards. Add some glitter in the mix as well.
This one deserves a prize.
If books still exist in the future, this’ll be in the historic photos from this era.
This is the kind of photo that does damage to their reputation.
Pictures are powerful, and this one is very much so.
Beautiful Agony.
My first impression was that of fiery embers.
