Happy Mother's Day!

"A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts."
~Washington Irving

quote for the weekend

"A photograph is a given and a construct, mapping the logic of display. Only by interestingly applying what we know, do art and science have a chance to restructure our perception of this world."
Art and Aesthetics, 1982, Frederick Sommer
