Club inspector

Saturday night I had an interesting assignment from the Chronicle - photograph a guy who can't be photographed doing what can't be photographed.  The Entertainment Commission has this guy who goes around to clubs investigating complaints about noise, or violence.  Except, most of the time he goes incognito so they don't know who he is.  So, I couldn't be obvious about shooting him, and I couldn't show his face in any of the photos I did get, so he can keep his 'cover'.  It was a different kind of challenge.  He was mainly checking on lines outside clubs when I was with him.  The guy was cool about me trailing him and it worked out.  Here's what I got, and the front page from the Chronicle today:
