First, touching Dandies, let us consider, with some scientific strictness, what a Dandy specially is. A Dandy is a Clothes-wearing Man, a Man whose trade, office and existence consists in the wearing of Clothes. Every faculty of his soul, spirit, purse and person is heroically consecrated to this one object, the wearing of Clothes wisely and well: so that as others dress to live, he lives to dress. [...] And now, for all this perennial Martyrdom, and Poesy, and even Prophecy, what is it that the Dandy asks in return? Solely, we may say, that you would recognize his existence; would admit him to be a living object; or even failing this, a visual object, or thing that will reflect rays of light.
– Thomas Carlyle, "The Dandiacal Body"

    David Urquhart says:

    "lather is a beautifully free spirit just waiting to be liberated from Omaha. According to the census there were 390,007 people in Omaha in 2000, but there is only one lather. It takes courage to be different and he has it in spades.
    His are not just photographs, they are art. I have checked out lather's stream every day since I've been on Flickr and every day I've been rewarded. You will be too."
