PICTURE TAKING

Taking photographs is much easier than writing. When I have a camera in hand, I am willing to take creative risks, have a lot of fun, and refrain from self-criticism. With a pen, there is inevitably tension, and not a lot of joy.

I felt an excitement seeing this; it reminded me of a person I once knew.
