Only two ways you leave a joint like this.

Feet first, in a body bag.

Or backwards through the door, behind two blazing .45′s, ripping the quiet apart with smoke and fear.

It always comes downs to decisions, too.

Decisions made, rightly or wrongly.

Or decisions not made.

Maybe you ended up here because you crossed the wrong cat.

Or the wrong dame.

Either way, nothing good happens on Railroad Avenue, especially at this time of night.

Yep, only one of two ways you’re leaving this scene.

You decide.

My interest in noir conceptual photography began with a Utatat photo challenge way back when.

Now, many images later, it's become an niche I enjoy. Every Friday because "Friday Noir" on my JerseyStyle Photography blog.

I've even inspired some heavy hitters like Joe McNally, Syl Arena and Craig Ferguson to craft their own noir images. Go figure.

Thanks to Greg Fallis and the Utata team for setting me off on this path.

Now I'm putting small book together to see how they look.

Lo-res screen grab of the cover. Better quality also coming soon.

A few things which passed in front of my lenses this past week.
