Submitted here for UnderGuide potential, and because regardless of that, it's entertaining and thoughtful.

Can't take credit for finding this one, it's an entry that Pinniped pointed out.

I've read it before, sometime ago. The ideas in it stayed and the reread was enjoyable.

Nice find, Pin/Waz. smiley - smiley
Has that great, pronounced nostalgic, inspired quality to it. And I can't help but identify with the author... I don't take many photographs, but they are essential extensions of the past.

I like both the power of the idea and the craftmanship of its expression.

True journalism commandeers the reader's imagination.
