this photograph / book
made such an impression
on me as a child.

from alice to ocean

the story of robyn davidson
and her 17,000 miles trek across
the australian desert with
her dog and 4 camels
in 1977.

i miss the influence
of national geographic

today we can
snap 1,000 pics of
a 4th of july bbq and
call it photography.

there is a difference
if you know what
i mean.
