if I pretend long enough, maybe I'll actually get good at this



"A good photograph will prove to the viewer how little our eyes permit us to see."
Leon Levinstein



"I hate cameras. They interfere, they’re always in the way. I wish: if I could just work with my eyes alone. To get a satisfactory print, one that contains all that you intended, is very often more difficult and dangerous than the sitting itself. When I’m photographing, I immediately know when I’ve got the image I really want. But to get the image out of the camera and into the open, is another matter."
Richard Avedon
