An interesting e-mail from a stranger this morning regarding my "Favourite quotation!" "Real Photographers shoot B&W. Sometimes Colour!" Questioning why it was my favourite? Quite simple really. It's my quotation! :-) 1/ I have a published photo book the title is the quotation! :-) 2/ It has been quoted any number of times through the internet and in other books when I've been quoted. 3/ But the real reason? :-) A major shopping mall in South Africa! Yep the for real South Africa and I didn't know anything about it until I received a photo from a visiting "photo tourist" from North America who knew my name. AND CLICK! The wonders of the internet. I received a photo. I then contacted a photographer in South Africa asking if he would please shoot a photo and confirm it existed? He did! ERGO: Why wouldn't I consider it my favourite quotation? Seemed reasonable to me. :-) cheers, Dr. ted :-)
