Through the optical axis of a lens as transparent as a cat’s eye in the extremely handy camera I’m Carrying, I capture with just the slightest stroke of my fingertip how I call in the world, or the world calls me in, and in this respect, I continue to make my rounds in the maze of city streets and humans. Being a street snap photographer who witnesses scenes, walks and seeks intuitively, also makes me feel a possible connection to the hardboiled novel. That’s because I frequently get lost and all fired up out there in the streets.
“If you want anything, just whistle.”-_ Humphrey Bogart
