They
[photographs] teach you about your own unraveling past, or about the immediacy
of yesterday. They show you what you look at. If you take a photograph, you've
been responsive to something, and you looked hard at it. Hard for a thousandth
of a second, hard for ten minutes. But hard, nonetheless. And it's the quality
of that bite that teaches you how connected you were to that thing, and where
you stood in relation to it, then and now. - Joel Meyerowitz, Visions and Images :
