Eric’s Note: For this article I am pleased to feature the thoughts about Dirty Harrry, a prolific street photographer from Crete in Greece. His images shot with flash are Â not only surreal but technically well done. Make sure to also check out my interview with him here, and see his images on Flickr.

Hi Eric, thanks for your invitation once again here. My words may be obviousÂ and don’t consider them “rules”. However these are my observations after shooting for 3 years with a flash in my street photography.
