From the day

Perspective: The Street Photographer · Tactile

The damp chill of October bites through my denim jacket as I track a girl trailing a sheer chiffon skirt over her tall suede Uggs. She's clutching a glossy flyer for the new thriller *INSIDE* while "Gold Digger" blares from a passing SUV, the bass rattling my camera lens. I watch her duck into a shop to eye those sleek, white Xbox 360 displays, her fingers tracing the smooth, cool plastic of the futuristic controllers. Popularity is everything in this city and, looking at the line for those consoles, it’s clear the tribe has spoken.
