Art Is Both The Taking And Giving Of Beauty, The Turning Out To The Light Of The Inner Folds Of The Awareness Of The Spirit.

I Have Often Thought That If Photography Were Difficult In The True Sense Of The Term - Meaning That The Creation Of A Simple Photograph Would Entail As Much Time And Effort As The Production Of A Good Watercolor Or Etching - There Would Be A Vast Improvement In Total Output.
