"To me photography can be simultaneously both a record and a mirror or window of self-expression.  The camera is generally assumed to be unable to depict that which is not visible to the eye and yet, the photographer who wields it well can depict what lies unseen in his memory."
​-Eikoh Hosoe

"Tonight the air has teeth
I wish I had another way to breathe"
-Tom Verlaine, "Breakin' My Heart"

"And I thought I'd seen someone who seemed at last to know the truth.
I was mistaken,
Only a child laughing in the sun."
​-David Crosby, "Laughing"

"This book made me think about my own life..."
-Samuel D. Hunter, The Whale​

At the beginning of 2021, I rather impulsively decided I was going to embark upon a daily photo project.  "Photo a Day," "Photo Diary," "365 Project" -- different photographers have many different names for the practice of making an image with intent every day for a year; often, they impose rules upon themselves of adhere to a prescribed set of prompts, guides, or restrictions regarding the content or form of said images.  My project was undertaken without any such premeditation, its form stumbled upon organically.
