Quote of the Week - Alvarez Bravo



Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.  Sometimes words don't do it.

Feel free to use the above as a writing prompt.  One of my favorite images of all time.


UPDATE:  I'm feeling more verbal now.  Found this lustrous quote on Alvarez Bravo's website:


quote start When I work it´s by impulse. Not in the sense of planning a photograph in advance. I work by impulse. No philosophy. No ideas. Not by the head but by the eyes. Eventually inspiration comes. Instinct is the same as inspiration, and eventually it comes.  quote end
