Thank you, Marnie.
It'll take a while to put one together, but I'm slowly getting there.
It's a private club with a pretty small membership, but there are enough
characters to make a decent collection given enough time.
Now that I've gotten a decent flash, I should be able to get shots that
otherwise would've been throw-aways. The overhead, recessed, tungsten
lighting causes ruinous shadows under the eyes, noses and chins of most
of the people I shoot, and a little bounce flash should fix that problem.

You see a lot of things working in a dive bar like the club where I work
-- the best and worst of people. The guy on the left is David -- a bear
of a man and local tough man contest legend. I've known him since I was
probably 12 years old, and when he's sober, he's one of the most
softhearted people you could ever hope to meet. But, when he drinks,
he's extremely tough to deal with.
The guy on the right is Glenn (the same Glenn with the full beard and
world-weary expression I've posted photos of before). He's one of
David's best friends. And, to be sure, he's no walk in the park when
he's drunk.
Well, this particular night, they were both drunk, and David decided it
was time to let Glenn know who the bull of the herd is.

They go through this little ritual on a fairly regular basis and it
makes for some pretty long nights at work sometimes.
