How foolish of me to believe that it would be that easy. I had confused the appearance of trees and automobiles, and people with a reality itself, and believed that a photograph of these appearances to be a photograph of it.

To photograph reality is to photograph nothing.
The good photograph is not the object, the consequences of the photograph are the objects.
When you photograph people in color you photograph their clothes. When you photograph people in black and white, you photograph their soul!
