But that doesn't suit his vision, or how you see this situation. So he shakes his fist or scowls or shake his head so they stop smiling. The reality was that kids smile when you point a camera at them. The truth the photographer wanted to show was that these kids led desperate oppressed lives. So which is more important - the reality or the truth? I have to believe that with the work you do Salad has to be someone you admire. Comments?
