Taxi

What is HE doing here? Need to sort this out...Alfred.
While driving through Naples in 80 miles pr hour, I thought of Robert Capa`s famous last roll, and managed to press the shutter once before I had to hold on to the front seats again. I honestly thought I was about to die. We had told the taxidriver that we needed to get down to the harbor and catch the last ferry to Procida...We arrived only three minutes later.
One hour early.

A timeless look, all except for those other cars. But still very nice.
 
That's what I would call a wild ride!
 
I just saw a Robert Capa exhibit in Paris which, of course, includes that famous last shot. Recalling him in that moment says it all! I have some shots like this myself from the back seat of New York city cabs. I guess hair-raising taxi rides are universal, eh?
