ETHOS
Photography rests on a paradox.
At its core, it is nothing more than a single image captured and committed to film. A lowly, single image. Less than a fraction of a fraction of one second. Yet if it is done well, it causes you to consider the person looking back at you. It makes you wonder about the kind of life they might have lived. And as you continue to look you soon realise that no matter who it is that sits in front of you, their reason for being sits there also. All the trials and the tribulations they've experienced along the way, all the joys and all the heartaches. It spans the entire length and breadth of their human existence. All in that lowly, single image.
A photograph has the ability to capture the soul of every being and beast that walk this strange and meandering path through the world. It makes us realise that we do not walk this path alone.
