The problem with most of us is that we are too soft. We follow popular option
and listen to the voices that predetermine what is good or bad. We defer to the
experts and neglect to nurture our own talents. We abandon our nascent curiosities,
which impedes the growth of many of our best ideas. We forget that being a good
photographer doesn't flow from following another's path.
Good photography comes from inner strength and
resolve. It comes from your gut. It requires a private tenacity that constantly
chants, I will not give up. And it comes from an unquenchable desire, no matter
how unlikely, to create something magnificent and maybe even profound. -- Chris Orwig, People Pictures, p. 12
