Only in art can you make something that no one wants and still be considered successful.

'Ornithologists concluded that migratory birds take hundreds of naps as they fly; they also practice unilateral eye closure, in which one eye closes, thereby permitting half the brain to sleep.' Is this what happens when photographers close one eye to look through a viewfinder? If so, they might be operating with only half a brain. Perhaps that explains.

When you can't think of anything else, photograph graffiti, nudes, or plants.

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.

Photographers, like kids, should be seen and not heard.

My point is that meaning is always personal, changeable and subjective. There is no 'correct' interpretation of a photograph.

'I am a camera' but it is a discontinued model.
