"The photographic process, it's no piece of cake. I want to challenge you, take the chip off my shoulder. I want you to make lemonade our of the lemons life hands you. With these images I want you to see differently. I want you to tie the knot between the image and the idiom; don't pull the plug and give up, you can figure it out, you're smart! Now I'm just fishing for compliments. Anyways, before you kick the bucket appreciate these photographs for yourself, don't pass the buck and leave it to someone else to appreciate. This could be your last straw, your last chance to see images in a collection like this." -Elizabeth (Bohr) Winfrey
