Quotation - Georgia O'Keefe

I discovered this quotation from Georgia O'Keefe on a website referencing Fay Godwin....there is a lot in it !!!

"Nothing is less real than realism. It is only by selection, by elimination, by emphasis that we get at the real meaning of things"

About Me

I have been taking photographs since I was young boy some 45 years ago, but only seriously since 2005 when I enrolled to study at the Open College of the Arts. I am working towards a BA in Photography. I am a Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society. This log record details of my projects and assignments during my studies. It also records ideas, work by other artists/photographers, notes on books/websites/exhibitions, influences, discoveries, thoughts, research findings and observations as I work through my courses. You can contact me at keith.greenough@btinternet.com or simply leave a comment on one of my posts.
