[LargeFormat] Chicago...tripods and the law

[LNPhoto]

Thanks for all of the answers.  This has been a few years ago, but my 
professor who shot in Chicago for 17 years before converting to teacher 
told us about a bored cop who insisted on seeing his permit. When Mr. 
LeVant produced said permit, the cop said it was a forgery.  With no 
other ammunition, Mr. LeVant countered with, "Then arrest me for 
forgery and shooting without a permit."  The cop declined and Mr LeVant 
called CPD HQ and asked if they would kindly tell MR. O'Malley to stop 
harassing him. It worked.

Now Howard lived there.  He could post bond.  I don't have that luxury, 
so I thought I'd do some research before.
  As one of Detroit's wise old weathermen said, "Knowledge is what you 
get when you read the fine print, experience is what you get when you 
don't"  In this case I'm hedging on the knowledge half.

And Wade, Not sure of the mode of transportation, but we'll be coming 
in from Detroit....either by rail or by car.
