Out Of It.
I’d planned on going to the NOM rally and counter rallies at the Supreme Court later this month to document it all with my cameras. I’ve got so much now in my photography archives relating to the gay civil rights struggle that I’ve witnessed over the years. But my heart isn’t in anything lately and the more I contemplated doing it the more I just didn’t want to. I don’t want to touch my cameras or my drawing tools at the moment. And I was never really that good at any of it. So I’m not going. History can go on its merry way without needing me to photograph it.

History doesn’t need you to photograph anything. Â The issue should be whether or not you need to photograph history. Â If not, no big deal, I’m not much of a photographer myself. Â I have, however, allowed depression to prevent me from taking part of meaningful experiences, which later led to feelings of regret.
I may be off base, and if so please accept my apologies. Â Do what makes you feel good.
