So what motivates my taking pictures? I suppose it's an inate curiosity about slowing life down to capture a moment and seeing what the image of that moment might subsequently tell me. Everybody has prejudices - including you, Steve - and I like to see whether my own perceived prejudices have been fed. The circumstances that led me to the guesses were shaped by participants in the all pervading discussions on radio and television during the referendum campaign, and the type of people who either called to my house to canvass or buttonholed me in the street to try to get me to vote in particular ways. So what motivated you to ask about my motivation? Was there a disconnect between you and my guesses, and what was it based on? Douglas
