Answer
- A day ago I would’ve looked at the figure on the page jumping out of a cab on a damp street and pitied her for the life she has to lead – the intrusions, the hassle, the lack of privacy.
- ‘She’s wearing the same outfit as always. She knows we won’t be able to sell on the photos.’ He shows me an almost identical shot from a week before.
- We spend the next three hours hanging around, the paps gossiping and moaning about the business – the dream shot, rumours of affairs, agencies squeezing prices – and the teenage fans discussing ...
- The best we get is a minor soap star, who Miguel spots en route eating a hotdog on a street corner. He seems happy enough to be recognised (though I didn’t know him!) and poses for us.
- Still, Miguel sees it as steadier than the photojournalism he used to do. He also supplements his income teaching at an art college.
- You can spend time preparing a hide and sit for hours up a tree waiting for a deer to appear and then, when it does, you screw up the shot and it’s gone – you’ve literally blown your chance.
- There’s a phone call. Apparently, Leo is at Up&Down. The chase is on again.
