| active bodies and minds. It is a perfect | world about you, and trust to your own |
| medium for one whose mind is teeming with | reactions and convictions. Ask yourself: |
| ideas, imagery, for a prolific worker who | "Does this subject move me to feel, think |
| would be slowed down by painting or | and dream? Can I visualize a print - my own |
| sculpting, for one who sees quickly and acts | personal statement of what I feel and want to |

| The camera makes everyone a tourist in other | |
| people's reality. - Susan Sontag | Now to consult the rules of composition before |
| | making a picture is a little like consulting the |
| | law of gravitation before going for a walk. |
| | Such rules and laws are deduced from the |
| | accomplished fact; they are the products of |
| | reflection . . . - Edward Weston |
