Always chasing the perfect photograph....I know i'll never get it.....
This isn't my quote, but I like it....
".....I thought I would add a few comments on the question of carrying a camera with you all the time, everywhere.
This seems like a great idea if you are obsessed with photography. My Dad subscribed to this philosophy. He carried movie camera, poloroid, 35mm, and the latest Kodak consumer format around all the time. We always joked that he was missing his life. He never knew what he'd done, until he got home and could look at the pictures.
It worked for him. When he passed away a few years ago, he had disc cameras, several polaroids, movie cameras, video cassette recorders, point & shoots, ad nauseum. He loved taking pictures. For him, the picture was even more important than the event...."

Richard- says:
"Duncan is a great, all around photographer who regularly posts images that inspire me. He's one of the few experienced photographers I've found on flickr who is willing to take chances, post experiments, and use lenses in creative ways to produce effects that please his eye. I'm lucky because what pleases his eye almost always pleases mine and I've enjoyed watching his stream for some time now.
And, he creates a visual wormhole between his Australia and my USA which, for me makes it all that much more interesting."8th January, 2008

"Life is ironic thats for sure. 1st ill say im writing this because i feel he deserves it. 2nd this has nothing to do with with him writing on about me. Truthfully a great photographer with a great eye! Its been a pleasure to view life and perception through your eyes. Thanks for the experience~!! I hope you add many more to your profile, its not everyday that one can view an image, rather than a snapshot.
