A new chapter in a photographic investigator’s book should be inspired. Inspired by a divine spark, a sudden revelation, a flash of realisation caused by a quote, a read or the words she heard by an unsuspected subject that interacts with her. In this case, my new chapter was inspired by a beloved Florence Scovel Shinn quote: “The robbers of time are the past and the future. Man should bless the past, and forget it, if it keeps him in bondage, and bless the future, knowing it has in store for him endless joys, but live fully in the now”. Fortunately, all my subjects are robbery proof. I am a lucky photographic investigator indeed.
