With the sun shining down so strongly, the sea was certain to be warm enough. He walked quickly along the seafront towards the steps that led on to the sands. He smiled cheerfully at the people. He had just smiled and waved his hat to an elderly lady when a man with a camera caught his arm and stopped him. Edgar heard a little buzzing noise (“咝”的响声) from the camera. “Your photo, sir, in bright color in just one moment if you please,” said the man.
