There is still a misunderstanding on the subject of the straight print, as opposed to the modified print. Some champions of pure photography, as it is called, will even deny that a modified print is a photograph at all. For my part, I believe that if the X deposit forming an image is built up by the action of light, under the shadow of another image, transparent, and also due to light action, the result must be a photograph, whatever modifications the photographer has thought proper to introduce amongst the relative proportions of the deposit. — Robert Demachy – Camera Work 18, 1907. [cited in: Alfred Stieglitz “Camera Work (The Complete Illustrations 1903 – 1917)”
Big difference since that day! New York was under attack… and the collective world held it’s collective breath.
Why? Because New York has always had a reputation for acceptance and is always considered a melting pot of diversity. Every Or Almost Every single Country in the World lost people that fateful day.
Now? It’s just Not New York, the World is under attack by a Virus! In the United States alone I had heard we might have topped over or close to 190,000 Dead?
We All need someone to step forward to take charge to Unite the people and make everyone understand that by not listening and following the Scientific Guidelines this wont go away anytime soon.

It has come to my attention that an Absolutely wonderful place has reopened to the public in Ireland. A park that is dedicated to the diversity and acceptance of The United States as it used to be. The Ulster American Folk Park.
We were there a few years back and on Facebook yesterday they showed an image featuring the Anvil from the Blacksmiths Shop!
