Hardening of the categories causes art disease.

Never have I found the limits of the photographic potential. Every horizon, upon being reached, reveals another beckoning in the distance. Always, I am on the threshold.

Photography is a small voice, at best, but sometimes one photograph, or a group of them, can lure our sense of awareness.
