Asked for your opinion on the prints, you have two choices: truth or tact. I ask for the bathroom.

A photograph is a picture and no more true or false than any other depiction; why is that so hard to comprehend?

A few photographers make a killing; the rest can't make a living.

Photography opens your eyes a little wider to the world around you.

'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.

If there is a single factor which separates the best photographers from the wannabes it is the quantity of images which they produce. They seem to be forever shooting. I have watched many of them as they take picture after picture even when they are not photographing. [...] Often these intimate images do not look as though they were taken by the same photographer. And that is their fascination and charm.
