twenty-eight years and a million words
This was one of a few photos that convinced me it was time to upgrade my camera. I'm just not getting the results I want in low light.

In the wake of 9/11, we [in America] have made the decision as a society that we can never again create something in which we can take pride, for fear that someone will destroy it. Moreover, we must suppress any trace of individualism, lest someone have the desire to rise above the bland sameness that protects us. I have, alas, no idea how to recapture our courage.
