"I take photographs with love, so I try to make them art objects. But I make them for myself first and foremost - that is important."

- Jacques-Henri Lartigue

 

I've felt so much love this year.

 

It's been overflowin'.

 

Sometimes I fall asleep thinkin' that I'm the luckiest man alive.

 

I feel it with my kids.

 

I feel it with my family.

 

I feel it with my friends.

 

I feel it on the streets when I shoot people I don't even know.

 

I feel it here with you.

 

I never knew there was so much love in the world.

 

I feel it every day.

 

I feel it because there's little conflict in my life these days.

 

I feel it because I appreciate it.

 

Feelin' all that love has changed me.

 

I don't need to explain it.

 

You gotta know what that would do.

 

I feel so much of it I'm driven to share it.

 

I want everyone to feel it.

 

I want everyone to see it and appreciate it.

 

It's out there.

 

It's all over the place.

 

I hope you've been feelin' it as much as I have.

 

I hope it's all wrapped around you right now as we prepare to start a new year.

 

You've been such a big part of it.

 

You've helped me to open my eyes.

 

You've encouraged me.

 

You've been there for all of it.

 

Your comments and your thoughts have sent so much of it my way.

 

Thank you.

 

I appreciate all the love everyone's shown me.

 

I hope you have the very best New Year and that in 2012 you feel all the love too.

 

I know where the love is.

 

Where Is the Love
