Most of Weegee's subjects were corpses and hardly likely to object to being
photographed.  Weegee photos of live subjects show them to be acutely aware
of the Speed Graphic pointed their way.  Big flash bulbs don't make good
stealth accessories, either.  Weegee succeeded by being an accepted part of
the scene, not by being secretive.
