'The Dawn of the Color Photograph' is a wonderful book I recently
had the pleasure of discovering. It's a treasure trove of color images from
the early 1900's, collected by Albert Kahn, a banker, yet really an
internationalist who dedicated his life to collecting and preserving
the earliest collection of color photographs depicting life at that
time, all around the world.

"Beginning in 1910 and continuing thru 1931, Albert Kahn,
a wealthy French banker, commissioned photographers and filmmakers to
travel the world to record and document human life on earth using the
recently invented Autochrome process."

Truth shines through this amazing work. It is most definately worth a look.

“The question is not what you look at, but what you see”

Henry David Thoreau wrote:  “The question is not about what you look at, but what you see”

When I first read Walden Pond, it influenced me deeply to seek peace
in nature and as a professional photographer to become mindful of the most minute detail. Is this a
Dandelion or a network?  Inter-connected, inter-dependent, balanced,
and stronger as a whole.

Are we stronger when we connect to others, I think we are, how do you see it?
