A camera on Hitt Street

I took this image quickly, on the fly, without much time to think or to compose.  But I like it.  When I look at it I imagine some film noir or expressionist filmmaker, plying his trade on a darkened, European sidestreet in the 1930s or 40s.  Perhaps Fritz Lang filming a scene from M, or Orson Welles working on The Third Man.  Alas, it is only fellow photographer Tony Irons photographing a building on Hitt Street..."the fancy cannot cheat so well."
