You Go, Bill

From William Eggleston's "Afterword" in "The Democratic Forest":

"I am afraid that there are more people than I can imagine who can go no further than appreciating a picture that is a rectangle with an object in the middle of it, which they can identify. . . . They want something obvious.  The blindness is apparent when someone lets slip the word 'snapshot.'  Ignorance can always be covered with 'snapshot'.  The word has never had any meaning. I am at war with the obvious."
