The flash of my Leica catches the shimmer of a metallic velour tracksuit as a girl zips past on a silver Razor scooter, her low-rise jeans revealing a peek of a whale tail. I step over a discarded newspaper detailing some corporate Seagram merger to frame a shot of a guy in a foam trucker hat leaning against a neon movie poster.
He’s laughing at Jim Carrey’s split-faced grin on the *Me, Myself & Irene* display, probably thinking the movie looks like a total riot, lol. The humid summer air smells like exhaust and hot asphalt, a perfect grit against the glossy pop world of Enrique Iglesias blaring from a nearby electronics shop.
