I didn't take it, but here it is:

Hmmm. When I see "On the Road", I think of Kerouac, not Leary. If
the mandate was "Turn on, tune in, drop out", I'd think of Leary.

Of course, "On the Road" was published in 1957 when I was in college,
so the reference might be more meaningful to me. Leary came to
prominence a decade or so later.


Well Tony, The difference between road photography and street
photography is ?

However there is a difference between a road runner and a street walker.

I have no idea of what to shoot for the road mandate, but I'd like to
find a shot of a street walker propositioning a guy. Seems like it
could make a good candid.


You send the hooker, DanP can send his camera, I'll supply the guy and
depend on him to come up with a street/road. Think we can get a useful
picture by the deadline?

Could the street walker be a male"
In theory he could proposition either a guy, or a gal.

Why? The same could apply to a female "Street Professional".
It is going to be $$$ & desire for those $$$ that will make the
decision regarding whether the client is male or female.

I didn't get that from your remark. You seemed to imply that if the
street walker was male, he could proposition guy or gal.

My comment implies that gender, and sexual orientation of the pro is
irrelevant when it comes to whether the client is male or female. $$$
is going to determine the rules of engagement.
