Ask photographers to write and they have nothing to say; ask them to talk about their work and they won't shut up.
But there are times when thinking is misplaced, like when taking photographs. You cannot think your way to making photographs; you can photograph your way to clearer thinking.
True, there are photographers who are failed artists, but so are most artists.
Only in art can you make something that no one wants and still be considered successful.
Photography opens your eyes a little wider to the world around you.
