Inspirational Inspiring Confusion
Making photos is helpful of course to master the craft. to get comfortable with the camera. learn what a camera can do and how to use the camera successfully. doing exercises for example if you try to find out things that the camera can do that the eye cannot do. so that you have a tool that will do what you need to be done. but then once you have mastered the craft the most important thing is to determine why you want to shoot pictures and what you want to shoot pictures of. that's where the thematic issue comes to life.

Thinking Publicity Unraveling
As a private person, i have a passion for landscape, and i have never seen one improved by a billboard. where every prospect pleases, man is at his vilest when he erects a billboard. when i retire from madison avenue, i am going to start a secret society of masked vigilantes who will travel around the world on silent motor bicycles, chopping down posters at the dark of the moon. how many juries will convict us when we are caught in these acts of beneficent citizenship?
