Thanks for the link and what a wonderful letter with such sound advice. Do we know if his son ever became a photographer?

That is precisely how I have felt for a long time - that I need to get away from the many cameras and get further into seeing, feeling, exploring, and instinct.
The cameras are a huge distraction for me.

Thank you!
