If there is a single factor which separates the best photographers from the wannabes it is the quantity of images which they produce. They seem to be forever shooting.

And that is their fascination and charm.

Art makes people do a double take and then, if they're looking at the picture, maybe they'll read the text under it that says, "Come to Union Square, For Anti-War Meeting Friday."

In art school we're always taught that art is an end in itself - art for art's sake, expressing yourself, and that that's enough.
