"It’s not about a moment, it’s about a moment made."

 

~ Kurt Markus
(1947 - 2022)

 

There is both a weight and power when one holds a camera in one's hands. Kurt is right, the moment must not be not simply witnessed. It is the photographer's duty to proceed with effort and intention. Photographs are a testament to our fleeting presence in this world and to be taken on with the great dignity.
