“Why one picture stands out among many others is always a mystery. In the beginning the subject is never quite known, but in the course of working something shows up on the film or in the print that speaks to me. I can never predict when this will happen.

And this is one of the things that keeps me going.” DoeI CanShowsHappensFilmCoursesSpeakKnownMysterySubjectsRecognitionExcitementPrintEcstasyStanding OutNever Quit Author:Ray Metzker
