I agree with Greytop. Keep the information coming.
I'm conscious that some posts on this subject seem like we are all having a go at the police. It is useful to have the opinion of a serving police officer.

Having read about the unfortunate Canon user who ridiculed the Pentax, then had to run home crying because his camera got wet ; it got me to thinking.
Are the older Pentax models reasonably weather proof? I have an istDL and wouldn't want to presume all Pentaxes are sealed, only to damage it shooting in the rain.

I have to agree and common courtesy David, but one point stands out from the statement.
That is the photographer refused to give his details to the guards, not that he refused to offer an explanation. I would not give out my personal details to an unknown member of the public ( which is all a guard is), especially, again taken from the report, if neither they nor I was in the place they were guarding.

Not for me I'm afraid.
Although I do like "colour popping" I think the rainbow contrasts too much with the background.
However, I think that has more to do with the IR effect on the background. I'd be intrigued to see a "normal" mono of the background with the raindbow superimposed.

I'm forced to agree with Ken. The closer crop says a lot more. I just wish I'd remember to do that when I snap our local squirrels!!
