The Eye of the Photographer

Someday soon someone will ask, Why did you become a photographer?

...and you will answer !

I became a photographer because it involved me and the entire world around me.
I became a photographer because it provided me with food for my soul... and bread for my table.
I became a photographer because it enabled me to observe the human condition and to record the parade of human events.
I have seen the land of the free and the home of the brave.
I have seen the beginning of life and the end.
I have seen my neighbors across the street and across the world.
I have recorded the hand of man as he builds and as he destroys.
I have photographed smiles and tears.
I have photographed innocence and sophistication.
I have photographed body and soul.
I have photographed men at work and at play.
I have photographed the wonders of nature and of man.
I have photographed beautiful things and beautiful people.
I have seen and recorded the world through my own eyes.
I am a photographer.
