"They were mistaken, and will always be mistaken, who prophesy that art will disintegrate, that it will outlive its forms and die. It is we who shall die — art will remain." - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race"

All of my images are copyright, if you'd like to use one please ask.

Please don't put unrelated images into comments, if I notice them I'll delete the comment.

I post quite a few portraits, often of people I know. Please don't make any comments about the subject that might bother them. If I see any, I'll delete them. I like being able to to post portraits and I don't want any of my subjects being upset.

If you can't see my photographs, especially if you live in China - then this link may help. There is a Firefox add-on which will allow viewing my pictures, you can download Firefox here, and after you have installed Firefox you can install the plugin from here.
