L. M. Lloyd

This is the mall right near our home. The funny thing is I was barely able to take this picture. You see, even though thousands of tourists take pictures of every square inch of this mall every day, they apparently have given instructions to their security guards not to let 'professional' photographers snap any pictures. Within seconds of this picture being taken, there was a security guard standing in front of me saying that I had to stop. In fact, if you so much as walk on the property with a tripod, or monopod, they come up to you to tell you that you need permission from the management to take pictures with 'professional equipment.' I even tried using one of those little tabletop tripods, and they were still on me instantly.
