A photographer went to a socialite party in New York. As he entered the front door, the host said “I love your pictures – they’re wonderful. You must have a fantastic camera.” He said nothing until dinner was finished, then: “That was a wonderful dinner; you must have a terrific stove!”

wow, this is great, Emilio! and if I hadn’t read through the comments, I would have missed the mirror selfie 🙂
And that quote is great, too. My good friend Tim, who helped me get started on the journey and joy of photography prepared me for the people who would say that about the camera.

Thanks, Robyn. I actually like it better in color but everything was shades of brown so it was an easy decision to convert and post it on Monochromia!
