So..... I found a bunch of quotes by famous photographers and ordinary people that help describe HOW I OPERATE , and how I feel about photographs :
“Character, like a photograph, develops in darkness.”- Yousuf Karsh
“The trouble with photographing beautiful women is that you never get into the dark room until after they've gone.”- Yousuf Karsh (This one is great!)
