I believe that if we'd heed KC's advise, and get to know our  
subjects, we'd have more than one photograph. Rather than trying to  
sum-up a human being in one iconic image we'd have a series which  
begins to speak of the many sides of a full life. Perhaps among the  
group we'd find a single image which would find some balance between  
rage and smiling hugs.
