I know it is no longer chic to idolize H.C.-B., but having perused the
new book, I would challenge any photographer I know to do the same and
then go out and do something original!  Ask yourself if your pictures
have any narrative content, anything approaching mystery, surprise and
delight, or if they make any statement which hasn't been stated by
someone else, better and before.
