Photography

I have always considered photography an art form in its own right but, at that, the least “artificial” of all artistic forms of expression. The camera is both a merciless witness to reality and the photographer’s eager accomplice, helping him to change the viewer’s perception at will. Needless to say, I enjoy taking photos as much as I loathe photos of me being taken …
