My first photography teacher told our class that there was no such thing as a boring subject, only boring photographers.

That's my challenge and my approach to photography.

Life is raw material.

We are artisans.

We can sculpt our existence into something beautiful, or debase it into ugliness.

It's in our hands.

Cathy Better

Give me work to do,

Give me health,

Give me joy in simple things,

Give me an eye for beauty,

A tongue for truth,

A heart that loves,

A mind that reasons,

A sympathy that understands.

Give me neither malice nor envy,

But a true kindness

and a noble common sense.

At the close of each day

Give me a book

And a friend

with whom I can be silent.

 

S.M. Frazier

Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes.

Life has no other discipline to impose,

if we would but realize it,

than to accept life unquestioningly.

Everything we shut our eyes to,

everything we run away from,

everything we deny, denigrate or despise,

serve to defeat us in the end.

What seems nasty, painful, evil, can

become a source of beauty, joy, and strength,

if faced with an open mind.

Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.

 

~ Henry Miller ~

I must learn to love the fool in me

the one who feels too much,

talks too much,

takes too many chances,

wins sometimes and loses often,

lacks self-control,

loves and hates,

hurts and gets hurt,

promises and breaks promises,

laughs and cries.
