Van Gogh was ahead of his time. Today's magazines and newspapers are full of photographs of politicians, celebrities, and other horse's asses.
I don't consider the subjects of many of my photographs as being old: they are my contemporaries. We have aged together. Here in the rural midwest the buildings and implements of decades ago are disappearing. Photographs do provide a record for the future.
