Photography for me is not looking, it's feeling. If you can't feel what you're looking at, then you're never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures.

Don McCullin

Most things in life are moments of pleasure and a lifetime of embarrassment; photography is a moment of embarrassment and a lifetime of pleasure.

Great photography is about depth of feeling, not depth of field. - Peter Adams

A true photographer is as rare as a true poet or a true painter. - Jean Cocteau

There are many misconceptions as to why Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in Mexico and the United States.  Here is a little history to clear up any doubts.  It's still a day for celebration so why not enjoy a Margarita today!  Salud!

Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for "fifth of May") is a holiday held on May 5. It is celebrated nationwide in the United States and regionally in Mexico, primarily in the state of Puebla.The date is observed in the United States as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride, and to commemorate the cause of freedom and democracy during the first years of the American Civil War. In the state of Puebla, the date is observed to commemorate the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguín. Contrary to widespread popular belief, Cinco de Mayo is not Mexico's Independence Day, the most important national patriotic holiday in Mexico, which occurs on September 16th.

Photography is a means of recording forever the things one sees for a moment. - Aaron Sussman
