“Photography is not a ‘difficult’ medium. All photographs are, by definition, ‘easy’ to make—you just push a button. The value of the medium lies in the photographer’s calling a moment in time to our attention—a moment we might otherwise have missed—and saying ‘this is important.’ It takes something simple and fleeting and turns it into something emblematic.” – William Eggleston
