Such a great collection, I always admire your eye for such strong expressions of people’s faces.
If you are not losing anything, the one thing you are losing is time. Each day is closer and closer to the end of one’s life.
Steve- this is fabulous- Of course your images! but also the quotes you added- Might be sharing those… Audrey
But Mr. McCurry is timeless!
