In the Light, Palestine-Israel :: Portraits-Part Five

"I used to teach photography and would tell my students, isn’t it interesting that when people go out with a camera, there are three things they always photograph – babies, animals and old men and old ladies. Why do you think that is? It’s because none of these people are going to whack you in the head. That’s why it is so fun for me to make photographs that don’t fit. That’s the job of the photographer." (Jerry Berndt,1943-2013)
