After a self inflicted hiatus from photography I have realised some important personal resolutions.
I don’t need photography to exist. Air, water, food and intellectual nourishment suffice.
Taking photographs is a human invention which requires only the intervention of the photographer at the time of recording.
No image is good or bad. Images exist to the indifference of what we make of them.
No object is outside the mechanisms of being photographed.
Any photograph is open to interpretation by any individual.
The intrinsic worth of a photograph is that of the ‘paper’ it is printed on.
The subject matter of a photograph has no value beyond what we make of it.
Like a grain of sand on a beach, any photograph will be as noticeable and remembered.
The tools used are inconsequential to the outcome’ meaning.
