I discovered that while many photographers think alike when it comes to equipment and chemistry, there are seldom two who agree on anything when it comes to what constitutes a good image.

"Photography is not about cameras, gadgets and gismos. Photography is about photographers. A camera didn't make a great picture any more than a typewriter wrote a great novel."

"Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back."

----Henri Cartier-Bresson

 

 

 

Picasso

 

In fierce March weather

White waves break tether,

And whirled together

At either hand,

Like weeds uplifted,

The tree-trunks rifted

In spars are drifted,

Like foam or sand.

- Algernon Charles Swinburne,

Up from the sea, the wild north wind is blowing
Under the sky's gray arch;
Smiling I watch the shaken elm boughs, knowing
It is the wind of March.

---- William Wordsworth, Written in March

 

 

Barbe Bleau

 

 

 

The March wind roars
Like a lion in the sky,
And makes us shiver
As he passes by.

When winds are soft,
And the days are warm and clear,
Just like a gentle lamb,
Then spring is here.
