Photography is
All about having an open mind and having the ability to learn without any inhibitions.
Colour or monochrome
Each has its own charm. My personal work is more inclined towards monochrome since I find it easier to hold a thought together that way.
Three websites you regularly surf
TIME LightBox, The New Yorker, Invisible Photographer Asia.
